About Bankers

Bankers belong to a unique species who will behave in a peculiar manner wherever they are and howsoever irritating it is for others. He will talk always about banks and banking irrespective of the occasion and whether his friends enjoy the 'discourse' or not. There are again classes of bankers - one who is always critical of his bank, thinks everything is wrong with his bank and every other bank does things the right way; some one else thinks he is discriminated against and denied promotion' though he deserves the most, the other fellow should not have been elevated despite being a great performer because 'I' don't like him and so on. There is more pride and prejudice than banking in many bankers. Run of the mill stuff.

Of course there are great bankers too; who think what is good for the bank, good for the employees and customers and for the society at large, They go on to become the change agents for banking. They are the ones who made banking and banks so great (particularly in India, in the present day scenario), less risky and more and more customer friendly. Let this species thrive.
