Our hats off to you, Golden One

Good luck with Meadow, Turtle!
Better use the ATM.

You proposition 8 debaters should enjoy this one from CBS13.com.

All Golden One Banks in our area are enforcing a new dress code: no hats…”Typically, they have a hood pulled up, they have sunglasses on or they have a hat with a visor pulled down,” says Teresa Halleck, President and CEO of Golden One Credit Union.

“They” of course are the bad guys. And they have a uniform. Without this uniform their super powers are lost.

I kid the Golden One. However, pay close attention to the sign posted at the front of the bank. The forward and backward hat positions are included in this policy.

  1. They really need to do away with pants as well. That way the bad guys can’t stuff any of there bad guy contraband into there pants pockets.

  2. They should station someone at the door to check shoes, too. Might as well, right?

    This is all obviously a ploy to get everyone to hate going to the bank even more and eventually switching the online banking, which will save Golden 1 untold millions in labor costs.

  6. Go to a bank in Oregon with no disguise. How often do you see photos of 1 time bank robbers from outside of the redding to fresno Ca area. I agree with the no disguise policy. Its not hard to remove a hat. In fact there was once a time when we did it just because.

  8. Baseball hat issue
    Recently on a trip into your broadway sacramento office i was informed that in order to do a transaction i must turn my hat around so that the brim is to the back.. . At which point i refused because my face was clearly visiable to anyone in the bank. I’m 55 years old and will not be punished as a whole for the issues of a few bad ones. whats next a pat down befofe i enter your hollowed doors maybe take my shoes off. you know after 30 years of loyal patronage i guess it’s time to find a new less impossing bank. this is the stupidest policy to come around in a long while

  10. The WAMU in midtown has a brand new sign banning ‘hoodies, sunglasses, hats, and helmets.’ They seem to have forgotten to tell their own security guard though because he was wearing a hoodie AND a baseball cap today.
