Weekend Video: Banks Were Like This?

This is a reprise of one of my favorite NFB shorts, called My Financial Career based on a story by noted Canadian humorist Stephen Leacock.

For my regular readers you’ll know I have already posted this once, but I do love to reminisce with this animated short because it shows so many of the interesting traits the “old” banking system used to have:

  • Bankers’ Hours, which were 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM Monday to Thursday and 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Friday and heaven forbid you talk about weekend hours!
  • Talking to someone directly about your banking

I chuckle every time I watch this witty and wonderful short
