What am I still doing wrong?

Andi and I have started to slowly pick up on some of the more subtle social requirements of living in India.  We are beginning to recognize when we are crossing social hierarchies, disrupting gender boundaries,  and generally being obnoxiously ignorant Americans.  And we are getting comfortable  with our decisions to disrupt certain boundaries and respect others that might be different than our own. 

But why, oh why, does the bank teller look at me like I am a dirty, plague ridden, and really quite foul smelling nuisance whenever I go into the bank to make a deposit?  What I am doing wrong?  What have I not figured out about that transaction?
