The person in the image behind the counter is a bank teller.
I’m quite certain that when you go into a bank wherever you are, you’re not greeted by an owner or executive behind the counter, waiting to cash your paycheck.
This is kind of similar to how it is in the US these days, too. There are still banks that have tellers, especially for drive through, since we love our cars, but far fewer. And I have been to banks here where there are no proper tellers.
Even in that case, the person who is helping you behind the counter is still an employee, drawing a salary (maybe plus commission, for things like loans, accounts, whatever). They’re still labor, they’re still having their labor undercompensated, they’re still victims of theft.
Nah, the worker in the bank isn’t the problem.
Bertolt Brecht correctly said:
Me said :
Bank tellers are not bankers. Bank tellers are labor, also victims of the bank, because their labor is not being fairly compensated.
Where I am there is no difference between bankers and bank tellers, because bank tellers doesn’t exist

In France, yes.
A 30 sec search shows plenty of job posting for bank tellers in France.
I think you should learn to do a research, here the bankers call themselves “advisors” and do everything.
I still know what I’m saying, I’ve lived in France forever…
Des conseillers c’est pas des banquiers, et c’est encore moins le monde au comptoir.
Nope, sorry, doesn’t count. Only internet citations count. A d also i won’t even bother clicking the link I’ll just argue why it’s wrong.
