"Giving change" and peoples stupidness

edited May 2008 in Social Entropy++
Fuck these cashiers or whoever. When you give someone their change after they have paid you cash, and your putting the receipt/change in their hand, put the coins in their palm FIRST! Fucking idiots. Don't put the receipt in their hand then the coins on top. You fucking stupid? The change fucking slides everywhere, slipping off the receipt, falling on the floor. You make the customer look like a moron and hate you even more. FUCK!

STEP 1. PUT COINS IN PERSONS HAND!!!!!!!1111
STEP 2. PUT BILLS/RECEIPTS ON TOP OF THE CHANGE. THIS MAKES IT EASIER FOR THE PERSON TO PUT THEIR CHANGE BACK IN THE RIGHT PLACE IN THEIR WALLET.

Next time YOU'RE picking up .83 cents off the floor!

    Thanks?

    So, your mastery of manual dexterity is about as poor as your mastery of English?

    I love the massive amounts of exclamation points followed by numerous ones, which are un-shifted exclamation points on most keyboards1

    Man this isn't even like, an anger thread. An anger thread I get. Or a dumb people thread. Or a don't know how to move my hands in a coordinated manner thread.

    But what do we even do with this?

    I suggest porn thread.

    For me it's not slipping coins or anything, it's that I have to take my other hand, pick up the coins, put them in my pocket, and then put the bills/receipt in my wallet.

    Whereas, if the coins were in the palm first, I could close my hand, take the bills/receipt in finger and thumb, put them away, and then pocket the change no problem.

    It ain't a big deal though.

    Every once in a while I like to show off my dexterity by doing transactions entirely one-handed. It makes me feel almost like a real person to have a skill that maybe could be useful some day.

    Best. Gripe. Ever.

    What's even worse is if there's a bill and a receipt involved. Then it's just sheer chaos.

    Maybe don't be an idiot?

    I love how cashiers do that. Cup my hand, receive change. Move hand to pocket, change slides effortlessly into pocket. Receipt never leaves hand.

    Thumb and index finger grab receipt, pull it out from under change, then drop change to pocket, no chance of slipping around or being dropped, and the receipt still never leaves the hand.

    call girls in ATL take plastic

    do it on their phones


    I was picturing a sophisticated cleavage swipe capture

    but I was told they just call the bank.


    I was kinda dissapointed

    In Asia cash is still all the rage, especially in Japan.

    Which is why I don't see why the bank teller can't just throw an extra zero on the end of my balance. C'mon baby, no one's gonna notice.
