I used to be a front end manager at a grocery store. One day a cashier called for me with a problem. A customer had paid with a twenty dollar bill, but she accidentally punched in $2 on the register and didn't know what to do next as it showed the customer still owing the original total of the sale, minus $2.I had to laugh. For about a decade, we had a condo in Vail, CO. Once, I found I'd lost my glove liners just as we were going out to ski. The lodge next door had a small ski shop in the ground floor and I ran over there. A clerk was there and looking a little disconsolate. I told him what I wanted and he said their computer was down. Noticing the cash drawer was open, I asked him if I could buy the liners, pay cash and he could make note of the sale and ring it up when the computer came back up. He said "I wouldn't know how much change to give you." (!?!) I said "What if I figure out the change for you?" He brightened up and said "That would work!" We did it and I left feeling sorry for him...
I told her to punch in $18 and it would fix it. She didn't really seem to believe me but did it. She always had a bit of an attitude and said if her drawer was short it would be my fault.
The customer gave me a look that said "They don't pay you enough to deal with idiots like this".
