Twice a month to deposit paychecks (as the sole employee of non-profit whose treasurer is a volunteer that runs the business on Quickbooks from his home, there is no direct-deposit), multiple times to get cash from the ATM, and whenever said employer writes me a check to use to replenish the petty-cash box.

That's nice. I don't have that luxury.

As previously mentioned. I need to maintain local check-cashing abilities that don't require a 90 minute round trip, and i need local, no-fee ATM withdrawals/deposits. I don't need to speak to a human, but I DO need a local, no-fee ATM (which is what I'm losing with the branch closure).
