What Happens When 'Midwest Nice' Meets the Bank? It’s Hilarious

What happens when “Midwest nice” meets the bank? The results are obviously hilarious. You will be laughing long after this skit about a Midwesterner working at a bank ends. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see how Midwest nice and the banking system make a perfect and hilarious pair.

Each region of the country has things it’s known for; characteristics and traits that help set it apart from all the others. Those who reside in the Northeast are known for their thick, heavy Boston and New York accents. Arguably, though, they are best known for being straightforward and very direct, so much so that it borders on needlessly confrontational. On the other hand, Southern Californians are typically seen as very laid-back and spending a lot of time on the beach.

However, when it comes to those who live in the middle part of the country, the Midwest, they are often considered some of the nicest people you’ll ever encounter. It’s become such a thing that a term has been coined to describe their pleasant temperament and overly sunny disposition: Midwest nice. If you’re somehow unfamiliar with Midwest nice, a clip posted on YouTube hilariously captures Midwest nice on display at the bank.

Hysterically, a customer approaches a bank teller and mentions that he would like to deposit money into an account. His efforts, however, are halted when the bank employee informs the customer, “We don’t like to talk about money here.”

Also, in the clip, a customer is using the bank’s drive-through teller system. This should have been a quick deposit or withdrawal, but the Midwest employee engages in a conversation, asking about the customer’s family, the weather and his truck. They continue talking even as other vehicles are heard honking.

Midwesterners really are nice people who will go out of their way to help you, even when it inconveniences them. Being considered unfriendly, impolite or inhospitable would be a nightmare scenario for a Midwesterner.

Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.”
