That bank teller is a certified FBI agent assigned to you. Ever notice how the timing of other people finishing always seems to align with you getting your handler?

1/6 obviously. This can change though with more detail, say if some tellers work faster or whatever.

Assuming which teller you get is random (1/6)(1/6) = 0.0277 = 1/36

How so? You would have a 1/36 chance of getting the same teller twice in a row

it's 1/36 to get a specific teller twice in a row, but only 1/6 to get any teller twice in a row.

Lol retard. First teller doesn't matter, just the second. if he asked what the odds of getting one particular teller twice in a row, then yes, 1/36.

More than 1/6

Quoted By:

There are 6 x 6 possible combinations of tellers and six of those combinations are you getting the same teller twice. So 6 x 6 / 6 = 1 in 6. It's a one in thirty six that you get a specific, pre-selected teller twice in a row.

Because the probability of getting some specific teller once is probably not strictly 1/6, so the most hardworking teller will tilt the probability.

If we're going down that rabbit hole then the probability is 0, anon has no money and this isn't even his brand bank.
