This laz money attitude kind of freaks me out. Normally at a Japanese bank nobody at his bank can go home until everyone's balance works out.

I've experienced the same anal-retentiveness from my banks many times but ....once, a shinjin teller girl made a 3 yen error on a currency transfer to an orphanage for me.
The next day she and her two butt-head bucho were at my door to apologize. The girl had slap marks on her and she looked as though she had been crying for some time. It was obvious all of them were up all night to find the missing THREE yen.
Seeing my horror, my super-kool shacho at the time subtly rebuked them in Japanese saying that they had offended my "gaijin-religious-sense-of-compassion by torturing the poor girl."
