Another Reason To Use The ATM
-
You can understand when the bank institutes a role that requires people not to wear hoodies in its branches, because of the potential of disguise and because so many bank robbers use it. But a federal credit union in the Washington area has a rule banning hats, which has resulted in its refusal to serve several women because they wear hats. And because, in some segments of African-American culture, women routinely wear hats, it's also a racial issue. You would think that the bank could exercise some common sense, knowing that an older woman wearing a fashionable hat is not there to rob them, nor would a woman wearing a shawl or even a burqa, or, for that matter, most guys wearing baseball caps. But that would require the people working at the branch to think. (WJLA–TV/Washington)
