I started a Leadership Lessons video series which include 11 lessons I've learned that I think are important to share. This first one is on developing a high fear of failure which is so relevant to today's times. https://t.co/eHdtd0yP6m

@TreyCoxe Also we plan to reopen the lobbies for longer hours once the days are longer. Should be early spring. Thank you again for the feedback and I hope you understand our decisions.

[Rick Saunders @RickSaundersCEO]

@TreyCoxe Trey, thank you for the feedback. I can certainly see how waiting that long would be frustrating. We chose to close our lobbies earlier during the dark winter months not for cost saves but out of safety concerns for our staff.

[Rick Saunders @RickSaundersCEO]

@TreyCoxe There are multiple, more convenient, technology driven methods you can use for deposits to your account. Would you like for me to have a staff member contact you to discuss? Thank you for your business.
