  1. Good Morning, Everyone…💰THE “SAVING GRACE”💰

    🎶You CAN COUNT on me like one, two, three, I’ll be there..And I know when I need it…I CAN COUNT on you like four, three, two and you’ll be there…🎶 “Count On Me” – Bruno Mars  2010 https://tinyurl.com/4x632nx5

    💰They usually have an OCTET, today five are at work,
    And none of them a CLUCK at all…the bank won’t hire jerks…
    It’s common knowledge that the bank… the CANNON Bank & Trust,
    Has always gone the extra mile…to client’s needs ADJUST…
    No matter what’s deposited…the small and large amounts…
    Are all given the same respect…for every ACCOUNT COUNTS💰

    They say “Money makes the world go ROUND”…and when it comes to our money…it’s always nice to be aROUND nice people…

    So…Today…We find ourselves at the Cannon Bank & Trust. And we see Ms PENNY SAVER speaking with who appear to be two new employees…who are listening with INTEREST…You can TELLER because she’s giving them the LOAN down on how she expects them to treat the bank’s clientele….On ACCOUNT of the fact that everyone who banks with them is a “best” (= COUNTS) customer..No matter how much money they have in their ACCOUNT…And with “whether Savings, Checking, etc” (= ACCOUNT) given to us in our question, and the TOTAL dialogue…this one ADDED up in no time…and was way easy to PIN down…What Ms SAVER is saying?…Every ACCOUNT COUNTS…and we’ve easily, breezily CASHED in on another one…And I’m pretty sure it’s a SAFE bet that you all agree…

    …And Jeff’s💎Gem today? A hidden one…the teller at left doesn’t have a name tag. INTERESTing…

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And this puzzle reminds me of my friend who was going around crowing about having great credit…when we all knew it to be just the opposite. Saying he’d prove it, he showed us a letter he received from his credit card company. It read…”Sir…you have a OUTSTANDING BALANCE”…And we don’t BANK on him taking a serious INTEREST in his financial situation any time soon…So at this POINT, in an effort to SAVE ourselves the angst, we’re not INVESTING any more time or LENDING any more advice…It’s HIGH time he CHECKS himself…And we all FIGURE that despite not thinking LESS of him, it’ll be in our best INTEREST to just leave him aLOAN and let him FIGURE it out himself…💰🙋🏻‍♀️

    …And a Shout 🗣️Out to David…All new anagrams today…🔠🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. 🤦🏻‍♂️The bulletin went out with a typo, and read: “Mr CANNON is aware that he will need to ADJUST the CLUCK for the OCTET concert tonight…and wants to assure the members that every ACCOUNT COUNTS”…🤦🏻‍♂️

    🤷🏻‍♂️The OCTET wasn’t ready, there was so much to ADJUST,
    Like a shot out of a CANNON…voices loud…and so they must
    Stop all the acting like a CLUCK, before things just surmount…
    Responsibility?… Right now it’s every ACCOUNT COUNTS…🤷🏻‍♂️

  3. 🏦 We all want a bank we can trust,.
    Whether working stiff or upper crust…
    So we search for the best,
    Put a few through the test…
    And good service is always a must…🏦

    🤷🏻‍♂️…Friendly tellers who won’t haw and hem,
    We expect courtesy come from them…
    It’s our money they hold,
    So they shouldn’t be cold…
    Let’s face it …there are ATMs…🤷🏻‍♂️

    🖊️Today most of us bank online,
    No waiting…the ease so sublime…
    But there are those still,
    Who chose to fulfill…
    Their banking needs where they can sign…🖊️

    🤷🏻‍♀️The idea of Zelle? God forbid,
    Or paying a bill on the “grid”?…
    Just doesn’t ring true,
    They’d rather make do…
    By the means that they learned as a kid…🤷🏻‍♀️

    💰So in-person banking it is,
    With money’s that’s hers or that’s his…
    And these tellers are taught…
    Balances close to naught?…
    Still count when it comes to this biz…💰

  5. I’m just a little thirsty today ! Two anagrams must have called yesterday’s two up and said let’s hit Jim with two more ! Well they did ! I didn’t even know what OCTETis ! And I should’ve have tightened my thinking cap cause the last word would’ve exploded with a CANNON ! Oh well ! Now the jumble was right at home for me by being in finance as a manager for 30 years ! ACCOUNTS came right out and what was left COUNTS ! This was a good thirsty-Thursday jumble and Angela all your information of your post really explains it well ! Very good Outstanding loan friend ! So let’s end the workweek Friday and have a great day !!!!

  6. Thanks for interesting post, Angela…easy solution with all four anagrams solved. Enjoy your Thirsty Thursday. Terry

  7. Good morning. Like Jim I had to look up Octet and then the meaning. Not a word you see very often. Other than that hiccup, it was smooth sailing. No blind solve but done in reasonable time. You nailed it again Angela with your song choice. Enjoy his singing, the man has talent. Until tomorrow take care.

    • Good Morning, Paul. No, not all that often, but if you’re into music, it’s a more familiar word…Tk you, and yes, he is talented, I enjoy his voice…And he’s one of the good guys, too. A philanthropist…and he does a lot for kids. Take care. 🏦🙋🏻‍♀️

  8. A relatively easy Jumble Thursday. I paused on cannon , thinking a misspelled canyon. Then on the cartoon thinking accounts count , rather than account counts! But a solve nevertheless! Happy Thursday all! Chuck.

  9. With every cent that to us you entrust

    It will definitely not gather dust

    We’ll make sure it works hard

    And we’ll be on our guard

    So that our return to you is robust!

    Helen

  10. Is that what bank managers relate to their bank tellers? I have a hard time believing that is what management would tell themselves, especially at Chase or BoA!

  11. The first word, octet, could also be cotte, which I used. It so happens it uses the same 3 letters for the puzzle answer.

    • The word COTTE is not used in American English. It’s an archaic French term…OCTET has been in Jumble puzzles for years…🙋🏻‍♀️

  12. There are sum solutions that just don’t look write. Octet is won of them. Or ate of them. Eye don’t know witch.
