You're right. The whole thing just rubbed me the wrong way. I should've renewed the license before then. It just took me by surprise as I had been in there off and on over the last 4 years cashing loan surplus checks from the college and I had never had to provide a driver's license before. In fact, the few times I was asked for identification my student I.D. was sufficient.
As for the employer, well...the license was valid when I filled out my paperwork on the 29th of April. I guess that's why no red flags were raised.
As far as the law is concerned, I'm not in the banking industry, so, I have absolutely no idea where the law stands. It didn't seem to bother the bank manager. In fact, he seemed to imply that it was a judgement call on the teller's part. Whether that was his blatant disregard for banking law or what, I couldn't say. With the knowledge at hand, it seemed as if the teller was more interested in moving the line rather than trying to help me and as a long standing member of the "service" community that just didn't sit well with me.
