  Speaker 1: a gateway first Bank, right downtown, right down in the
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: heart of everything, right there, close to the Price Tower.

• 8:22
  Speaker 1: line for you guys.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: I match, oh yeah, for sure.
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: We definitely like to keep minimal fraud down if we
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: can help it, and we try to make sure and
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: look out for our customers, and we got quite a
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: few safety precautions in place for them.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Well that's great because sometimes that's full time job.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: It is, especially in today's society right now, it's ridiculous.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: They'll try anything, you know, and so you know, we've
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: got all the safety precautions in place. And it's important
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: that we build relationships with our customers so they feel
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: comfortable come and asking us those questions about fraud and so,
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: and we want them to so we build relationships with
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: our customers so they know that we're looking out for
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: their best interests.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: It's really nice because folks do have a tendency they
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: don't do everything online. A lot of times they come
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: in to do a transaction or to just to say hi, right,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and that's a great way to keep that man maintain
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: that a good you know communication and also the visual
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: presidence of one another.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: Hey, you're exactly right, And that's that's a that's a
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: big thing going right now.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Is the younger.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Generation they want to come in back into banks now,
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: they do, Yeah, yeah, they they really they are wanting
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: to come into a bank and see somebody in person now.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: So makes them feel to tour about the elderly. That
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: was it.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: Oh, just the older generation. They want to come into
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: the bank and see somebody. We just talk about that,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: and then it now it's transitioned back to kind of
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: the younger crowd wants to come in and they want
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: to see it. So, you know, you're seeing banks all
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: over the place, branches that are starting to open up,
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: just again where they close branches before because no one
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: come in. Now you're kind of starting to see them
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: open up. So that's big, and that's why we want
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: to happen. We want people to come in. We want
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: to talk to him, we want to see them.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: That's good. You know what that does. It gives them
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: that sense of there is somebody there. I am not
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: talking to my phone, I'm not talking to my keyboard.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I'm talking to Chris, I'm talking to Philip, I'm talking
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: to Rose, I'm talking to Linda. That's right, you know.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: And they may or may not be working at the bank,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: but I'm talking to no anyway, we're it's going to be.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: It's one of those things we're seeing is believing. So
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I want everybody to see for yourself. Just pop in
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: absolutely huts, ask a few questions. They'll give you answers
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: to Philip, He'll give you an.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Answer and have them come in. We want to make
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: sure and help build those relationships with them.
