More BOA BS 9-25-09
America, Let's Roll!...
This is one of thousands of citizens comments posted in the news media past two days regarding the BOA fiasco.
This is one of many comments taken from www.foxnews.com 9-25-09 from BOA employee and you can put money on it.
Strange this shameful story made headlines around the world,but, I'm unable to find mention of it in any California newspaper.

Trust me....I worked for Bank of America for over 25 years. They can sugar coat this one all they want, but that manager truly thought in her heart of hearts that she was doing the right thing. Knowing that organization as I do....she also continually fears for her job too and was scared to death that a district administrator or someone above her might be dropping by for a surprise visit that day....and heaven forbid if he saw a couple of U.S. Flags sitting on the sidewalk out in front. Back in the early 90's during the Gulf War I was working in a branch of B of A in Central California. One day the district administator paid us a surprise visit. He asked one of my co-workers to remove something she had pinned to her dress. Confused and in tears she said "But, my son is fighting overseas right now, this is to honor him". The cold S_ _ told her that "he didn't care what her son was doing". He told her to remove that item immediately and that things "like that" should never be worn during banking hours, they are just too controversial. Oh....the item she had to remove was a tiny little American Flag pin, maybe 1/4 inch or smaller. No extra wording on it....no extra pictures....nothing, just that tiny pin. One of the things I don't understand is why, when Bank of America merged with Nation's Bank and they decided to change their logo....take a look at it....it looks like an abstract American Flag...what's that all about?? When I first went to work for Bank of American in the late 60's and it was at that time a California based bank and it was even during the Vietnam War....each branch had two flag poles out in front. One for the American Flag one for the California Flag. Each morning we put them up and then took them down at the end of the day. My how things have changed!! Trust me....taking those flags down was no mistake....that IS their bank policy. That poor lady feared for her job and sincerly thought she was doing the right thing...as far as her beloved employer goes.
