why do banks keep weird hours during weekdays? i was rushing to the bank at clementi at 1630 today & after going to 3 banks & 1 post office (this is by accident, coz i tot the bank moved with the post office), i realised all the banks close at 1630 & they were really punctual to the very second...

honestly, most of the banking crowd would be working adults & tell me, which working adult is able to go to the bank at 1630 during the weekday? majority of them will be in the office working! and also banks open at 0830, which poses the question that how would said crowd be free to go to the bank within the opening hours, unless he or she wants to be late to work or give up their lunch breaks...

that brings up the matter of cost efficiency... if most of the crowd can only make it during lunch break, then why bother opening for the rest of the hours during weekdays? shouldn't it make more sense to extend opening hours to after office hours, when people can actually go to the bank?

maybe working in banks would be a good career opportunity, seeing the short hours that they keep... ok i'm just ranting because i didn't make it to the bank before closing time!!!
