Rather, it was a master servant relationship. The long hour spent by customers waiting either to deposit or to withdraw funds or cash cheques attest to this.
However, in order to curb this ugly situation in the bank effective human relatives should get the attention of the bank. The bank should strive hard to prepare their front office personal by way training in human psychology so as to satisfy the various shades of human temperament. They come across everybody of operation.
