Try to throw in a joke or something to make her smile. Coyly incorporate more information about yourself and inquire about her. Make sure you ask questions, but don’t be obvious. It’s really all about her and getting attention.

If you’re feeling ballsy, try to incorporate some very happening event happening the following weekend and ask if she’s going. Again, relevance. If she’s young and trashy, there’s a good chance she’ll be going to the big rock concert. Not as much chance she’ll be going to the opening of the Vermeer exhibit.

Speaking of rocking out, bank tellers are closet party animals. They hang around absurd amounts of cash all day, and feel bad about themselves that they’ll never really make anything close. They drink a lot; they’re like second-cousins to the waitresses of America. They like to pretend they too have glamorous lifestyles and then take pills all night to try to make themselves forget that they really don’t.

A good line to use early in the morning is something to the effect of, “Wow, I do not want to be working today,” or “Rough morning, I am so tired.” They will likely follow up with questions about what you did the night before. Embellish bar-hopping stories. Then, ask if they went out. They either did or didn’t, and if they didn’t, they will probably try to sound cool and tell you about the next time they plan to. Perfect way of talking about the following weekend, and safe way of asking what their plans are.

It’s good to visit on a Thursday so it’s close to the weekend and you can work on some zingers that will perk up her ears like the following:

“Can’t complain, but I’m ready for the weekend; I just got a promotion and bought a new home theater. I’m having a huge party on Saturday.”

Always mention new purchases that are worth mentioning. She wants to know you have money, and more importantly, that you spend it. Always have a story ready about how you went out and did something interesting with a number of people. You’re really not going to stand out by saying your weekend was “all right” and you didn’t “do much.”

Sinker

If you know what you’re doing, and you’re confident that she’s into you, you can drop the gem on her on your third visit, but I recommend waiting until you’ve seen her 3 times to really spit your game. In this case, go at the beginning of the week so you can ask her about her previous weekend and brag about your own. For the bank teller, you don’t want to ask her to invest in a weekend with a stranger right off the bat; though she’s a party animal, she works in security, remember?

Coffee’s no good, and dinner’s too formal. She doesn’t get coffee breaks and her lunch is short and timed to the tee. And you can forget asking. You’re telling her you’re going on a date. After you go through the nonsense small talk about each other’s weekend, say the following, based on her previously-assessed wildness factor:

“You know what, I think we should get lunch sometime.”

Conversely:

“You know, we should hit a happy hour and go grab a drink after work this week.”

If she seems like a rager—happy hour. If she’s more laid back—lunch is fine. She will be taken aback, but in a good way. Keep in mind you still have the horse by the reigns. She will more than likely be caught off guard and ask about where and when you want to go... just tell her to give you her number, and ask about when a good time to call is. Ask her when she gets off of work. She can’t answer the phone during work hours. Tell her it sounds good, and then, ride off into the sunset.

Wait about 2 days, and then work your magic. Congratulations, you’ve just gotten the digits form a bank teller.
