Just throwing it out there for people who are wondering what to tell tellers if questions asked. Works for me. Have told other tellers same thing when depositing Merge checks.
I've been asked twice what the check was for or who it was from. The first time I asked if it was standard procedure for a bank to ask its customers how they earn their money. The teller processed it immediately.
The second time was much more amusing. The teller couldn't have been more than 18 years old, and she decided to pull an attitude with me. So with a purposely extra loud voice I told her that I do consulting for an adult toy web site. I started a sentence like "last month I was asked to do some product testing..." but the manager came rushing over and quickly processed things. I don't think I've ever seen someone's face as red as the girl's was.
