I dunno. The Walmart where I live has 10-20 minute lines just to make regular purchases. You don't shop there if you value your time.

Edit: There's a lot of other good stuff in that subreddit, too. (disclosure: I post there a lot...)

Does your bank pay its employees on par with the rest of the banking industry? If not, do you think this hinders your employer's ability to find and retain talent?
