Fifth One-Third Bank measurements Teller public presentation on an individual basis. But the Cincinnati-based bank pays a set committee for each merchandise or service sold.

Full clip Tellers are expected to accrue at least $150 in committees each month. Part-time tellers have got a $75 goal. They begin each calendar month with a clean slate.

"It's very attainable," Slaven said.

Fifth One-Third employees, who have bonuses on a quarterly basis, are paid the amount they earn, even if it falls below the public presentation standard. And there's no cap on the upper end. Some Tellers earn more than than $1,000 a calendar month merely from commissions, Slaven said.
