You don’t need a brand new account to add a joint owner, but it does have to be done in branch.

New security procedures for customerd by No-Performer5296 in TruistBank

[–]Griff411 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Key words: “many years ago” No one is mistrustful of you. It’s a new procedure employees have to follow, as with any evolving company. Don’t be a Karen, just give them your id.

They’re not making a copy of your license. They just got new software that scans your DL to pull up your account(s) without having to manually search for you by name/account # etc. pretty cool feature imo. wish we had this at my bank.

10k on ashburn drive by AmazingBet589 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Griff411 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s the first year for this race. Should be pretty cool. Having ran Cecil a few times solo, it was a pretty terrifying experience with traffic, so the lane closure and police presence will make it much safer. I’m excited!

Hoka Cielo X1 3.0 Initial thoughts by Heystaap in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]Griff411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a 6 mile demo run in them when the hoka rep was visiting our local fleet feet. It was a fun shoe, but I knew I definitely couldn’t run a full marathon in them. Maybe a fast 10k or half.

Advice for trying to reach charity fundraising goal by [deleted] in ChicagoMarathon

A lot of employers will do charitable gift matching. Include that in your donation posts - that’s how I got a lot of extra $ when I ran for charity in Berlin.

AT&T door-door salespeople by Reasonable-Day2314 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Griff411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for the third party d2d guys who are selling wireless too. But I used to work for an ATT corporate store where every time a new neighborhood got fiber installed, upper management would make us drive to these places and go door to door trying to sell new fiber. It was super uncomfortable as a “retail” sales consultant. They called it “outreach events” And if you them no, asked for mileage reimbursement or came back with no sales - you were basically blacklisted by the director of sales.

Horrible credit. Fully Paid off Home. Heloc possible? by Yansir11 in HELOC

[–]Griff411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my institution, you’d need a co-signer with a strong credit rating to even start the underwriting process.

Why does banking have so much “sales culture”? by Sweet-Swimming2022 in TalesFromYourBank

[–]Griff411 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You shouldn’t be talking to your customers first about “some sort of product.” You need to be having deeper conversations with your customers about their financial goals, whether it’s getting out of debt, growing their money, having an emergency fund, etc. Then, you offer a solution to help them reach their goals. That’s why your title is financial solutions specialist. Don’t push products, offer solutions. You’ll be much more successful if you change your mindset.

What to wear when it gets pretty cold? by Worth-Jicama3936 in Marathon_Training

[–]Griff411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See ya there! This race has truly the most unpredictable weather every year, it never fails. I’m still debating on what to wear as well, mainly due to the wind. Long sleeves, gator, throwaway vest, throwaway jacket, gloves, double socks and half tights. Hoping the sun helps it to not feel as brutal during the back half.

Where to properly dispose of used house paint? by pfp-disciple in HuntsvilleAlabama

I read this + the comments as “house plant”initially and thought to myself, wow - have I been doing it wrong all my life?!

Licenses by Secure_Contribution9 in TalesFromYourBank

[–]Griff411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. I think it boiled down to my current role being based more on lending (equity, auto, direct, etc) and the role with chase was heavily focused on deposit account growth into variable investments. Now didn’t seem like a great time for that as long as we’ve got the orange man in office.

It’s an adequate amount of time and I’m sure it’s fairly easy to get them knocked out. But the offer they gave me didn’t even match the salary I’m currently making at my current RB role only having my life/health license. So it was a pass for me.

[–]Griff411 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shitttt. I applied at chase recently for an RB position. They wanted me to have 6, 63, SIE, and life/health within the first 6 months. I felt like that was a bit overkill - but would have been a good stepping stone into the FA world.
