A Kentucky bank teller is out of a job for the way she greeted customers at her counter.

Polly Neace says she doesn't understand why her bosses at US bank think there's anything wrong with ending every transaction with "Have a blessed day."

"I don't believe there's a better day you can have than a blessed day," Neace said.

Most customers, she says, would say 'thanks.'

Others complained.

Apparently, her greeting violated the bank's code of ethics.

She was also reprimanded for saying 'God bless you' and asking a customer if he was taking the lord's name in vain.

She's suing the bank saying she feels discriminated against for exercising her religious freedom.
