年内超千家银行网点关门，智慧网点已成大趋势？ - 2021年12月10日

Working in a bank used to be a prestige job. But for Catherine Jiang, the allure faded after over 10 years.

"On busy days, we often had no time to stop to have a drink or something to eat," she told Shanghai Daily, adding facetiously, "some of us even wore adult disposable diapers because we couldn't take a bathroom break."

The work of processing money is tedious: deposits, withdrawals, money orders and balancing the till. Some days as a teller, Jiang said she felt shell-shocked by the sheer repetition of daily transactions at a bank she asked Shanghai Daily not to identify.
