That bank teller who caught a typo in my wire transfer

I was sending $3,200 to a contractor in Austin last Tuesday and typed the account number wrong by one digit. The teller named Maria stopped me before it went through and showed me the mismatch on her screen. She said she always double checks high dollar wires after someone lost $12,000 last year. Has anyone else had a teller save them from a mistake like that?

Maria's the kind of teller banks should clone honestly.

5 years ago I would have said all tellers are basically the same. Then Maria helped me sort out a mess with a misrouted deposit that two other tellers had given up on. She kept a cool head and fixed everything in under 10 minutes, which changed how I see the job.
