Banking, Tanzanian style

I am standing in line at a bank in Moshi for more than thirty minutes. I will not name the bank. There should be four tellers serving more than 20 clients.

But not a single client has been served and I suspect that tellers 4, 5, 6, and 7 have all decided to take their lunch breaks at the same time.

*****BREAKING NEWS*****

As I was about to continue in this paragraph to describe the less than satisfactory service provided by this unnamed bank, an employee has announced "they will be ready after 30 minutes."

I would assume there is a technical fault that is causing the delay. I can also assume that the four tellers need those extra minutes to clear their lunch plates.
