I really hate it when the cashiers balance the coins on top of the paper money when they give you back your change.<br /><br />Remember when cashiers would count out your change? ā.45 makes four dollars, five, ten, and twenty.ā<br /><br />Now, they pile the coins on top of the paper, then give you the whole teetering pile, and more often than not, it falls all over the place!<br /><br />I am finding this happens most often in the drive-through fast food joints, and when I call them out on it after the change rolls under my car, they act as if _Iām_ crazy!<br /><br />If the cashier puts the change in your hand first, you can close your hand to grip it (or pocket it, as you rightly suggested), then take the paper money in your fingers.<br /><br />When the cashier gives you a teetering pile of coins on top of paper money, you have to crush the whole pile in your fist, but it often ends up all over the place because the coins slide around at the slightest motion.<br /><br />I never had this problem years ago, when cashiers almost exclusively handled cash, but it seems that I encounter this problem more and more. Making change is not rocket science. The cashier does not even have to calculate the change, they just count out what the computer tells them to do. The least they could do is return the change properly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14725530.post-1166282704883415392006-12-16T10:25:00.000-05:002006-12-16T10:25:00.000-05:00I hate that too.
