Our banker was finishing up an account opening after hours, he came to my window so I could process the deposit and he told me he verified the state check. when I ran the check through there was a system message to which the banker was insisting the check is fine, etc. etc. to which I had let him know if he feels so comfortable with the check in this transaction, he has to override it as I did not feel comfortable to override anything. I told him you override it otherwise I’m declining the transaction ( where I work only the person to override gets in trouble ) I then let him go to my computer so he can put in his override and he pushes my self override(you can clearly see on camera) when I strictly told him I will not be the approval on this transaction he then continues to tell me it’s OK it’s fine. He runs out of the teller line to let his customer out as it’s after hours and lock the door . I then tried to argue with him to which he continues telling me it’s fine. It’s fine. I then brought it up to my manager, as it was not fine in my eyes, especially because I saw a few red flags on the check and also wondered why the refund was so large. Again, I did not want to make this transaction but as he pressed myself override and escorted to customer out quickly, it seemed to be too late, especially because I need an approval to reverse. which is why escalated it to the manager.. she is telling me it a strong possibility I could get fired as well if it returns. Has anyone seen anything like this, I feel so foolish for trusting my coworker I would’ve never thought he would go over my head like this. He does have a constant issue of not listening to ANYONE. So I almost feel like I should’ve known better but now I just come into work stressed and paranoid about it everyday. There’s been no other activity on the acc since the check was deposited and zelled every cent out 🚩
Am I fcked?

Edit : manager has told me she created a case & there is an open and active hr case about this and it is getting escalated and escalated and that’s when she reminded me about the possibility of getting fired if it were to return and that we are still seeing what will happen to my coworker and she doesn’t know anything for sure as of now.
