Bank Offers Longer Than Expected Opening Hours

There’s not really much I can add to this one. I’ll let the BBC tell the story…

A busy high street bank was left open overnight after contractors forgot to lock the door.

Staff had locked up the branch of Barclays in Low Fell, Gateshead, on Friday afternoon, but the contractors popped in later to picked up documents.

The building was left unlocked and police were only alerted the following day when a customer walked in and found the branch empty.

Now thats what I call security. Or possibly trust. Or possibly a whoops! moment.
