They Were Suddenly So Accommodating !

Since the survivorship pension’s requirements of my mother aren’t fully complied by us since May, the savings accounts of my parents are nearly depleted. Three of the bank managers where our parents have their savings accounts, went to our house to see our mother and had her thumb marked after we have submitted their needed requirements after our father died. We were able to withdraw some amount. However, one bank manager didn’t even go to the car where our mother is when they went to the bank after her medical check-up in the city. Instead, he again asked for another requirement which he would add every time we have passed another requirement to their bank. Out of my anger for such treatment to us in at least letting us withdraw some amount for our mother’s medication, I called our family friend who is the brother of the wife of the mall mogul who also owns this reigning bank. I told him our predicament and he told the nephew who is in charge of their banks. The next week, on Monday, the branch manager went to our house together with our townmate who is their auditor. They brought the whole amount of my mother’s savings and just left ten thousand they say at the savings account as a guaranty that all of us 5 sisters will sign in their presence for the quitclaim once we will close the account. The manager was so accommodating and kind already, even when we went to the bank to sign the quitclaim after some few days. We were told that the manager was made to go to Manila before he went to the house. But we never told him, who amongst the sister pulled a string so we can be treated nicely. We even didn't close the account and deposited the excess money. I told my sisters, in this materialistic world, it is not what you know but who you know in order to be given a nice attention. Have you ever resorted to pulling a string in order to be helped?
