Saterdaglagmedisyne - "Don’t be difficult with old people"

This old lady handed her bank card to the teller and said, “I would like to withdraw R10.” 
The teller told her, “For withdrawals less than R100, please use the ATM."
The old lady wanted to know why. 
The teller returned her bank card and irritably told her, “These are the rules, please leave if there is no further matter. There is a line of customers behind you.”
The old lady remained silent for a few seconds and handed her card back to the teller and said, “Please help me withdraw all the money I have.” 
The teller was astonished when she checked the account balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and respectfully told her, “You have R600 000 in your account, but the bank doesn’t have that much cash currently. Could you make an appointment and come back again tomorrow?"
The old lady then asked how much she could withdraw immediately. The teller told her any amount up to R3000. 
“Well, please let me have R3000 now.” 
The teller, very kindly and with a smile, handed R3000 to her.
The old lady put R10 in her purse and asked the teller to deposit R2990 back into her account.
HAHAHA.
The moral of this story is ...
Don’t be difficult with old people, they spent a lifetime learning the skill.
