Money: Assumptions

Assumptions

Today, I went to the bank to deposit the cash I made waiting tables. While the teller was counting, I apologized for having so many small bills. She said "It's OK honey, I helped another one of your kind just the other day. You're lucky we take your dirty money." She thought I was a stripper. FML

Today, I went grocery shopping. Being a bartender, I had a huge wad of dollar bills from cash tips. As I was counting them at the register, I looked at the cashier and joked, "You probably think I'm a stripper or something." He looked me up and down and said, "Uh... hell no." FML

Today, I went to the bank to make a deposit. While I was waiting on my transaction, the bank tellers were making fun of me. I could tell cause I heard them through the speaker. FML

Today, I was finally paid back by a friend who wrote a check out. Not really looking at it, I went to the bank to deposit it. As I handed it to the teller, I noticed that he had written "sex" in the "for" memo. FML

Today, I was at work handling the cash register. It wasn't working correctly, so I apologized to the woman I was waiting on for the delay and explained, "The cash register's being a little retarded today." Then I noticed her clearly "special" adult son standing behind her. FML

Today, I'm a waitress. A customer came in and acted very kindly and even mentioned how I was such a help to her. She also mentioned leaving a nice tip. The tip? A fake $20. Thanks. FML

Today, at work as a bank teller, an angry customer complained that the payments on his two credit cards had been messed up the previous month, with the wrong amount being credited to each account. I asked if he knew who'd helped him. He said, "Well, it wasn't you - she was younger and prettier!" FML

Today, a lady came into my workplace to pay her $120 bill in one dollar bills. I kept losing count. FML

Today, at work, a man bought a lot of really expensive stuff. He paid the large bill with cash, and the manager helped me count the money. When we were done, he handed me a $100 bill to thank me for all the help. We can't accept tips. The manager was next to me. I had to say no. FML

Today, while working at a bank, I helped a customer who was making a large withdrawal. After I counted out his money, I asked "Do you want the strap on?" After a moment of awkward silence, as I realized how that came out, he smiled and said, "No thanks, I don't need one." and winked. Great. FML

The teller shouldn't have sterotyped you. You're not a stripper just because you have small bills... and she had no right to say that.

She should be fired! What a rude comment to make to a customer.

yeah, i feel you hun. im a waiter, and i often end up with tons of singles at the end of the night. You should have complained to the bank manager.

That is pure ignorance on the teller's part to think you were a stripper. In my time of waiting tables, I never had a teller think I was a stripper.

No one asked if she actually IS a stripper. Just saying.

.....learn to read, dear. It's in the first sentence that she's a waitress.

Yeah, I'm all about calling people out when they stay ignorant things like that. I'd have made her feel 2 inches tall, and then ripped into her manager too.

Given the rampant epidemic of obesity in this country, the money you earn by serving fat people giant portions of fatty, fattening McFatFat food is dirty, even greasy. The teller was probably an organic vegan. They can be bitchy. No bacon can do that to a person.

It does that to ME. God, the second I bite into a strip of bacon, I just feel the overwhelming urge to bitch everyone out and insult them for no reason. Hey, maybe the trolls are big bacon eaters.

Um, what....? It was a joke. I was arguing with him for the hell of it. He was stating a fact: "Bacon doesn't make you bitchy." I was saying the opposite. Just like if someone said, "Everyone poops," and I said, "Not me!" In actuality, I don't eat bacon because I don't like it. If I want to eat something that isn't nutritious (which I DO), I would prefer some doughnuts. Nom nom nom.

File a complaint and get her fired. She deserves it. FYI strippers are the most honest women in the world, atleast they put it forward that they are only interested in you for money. Unlike the rest of you bitches.

TooMuch did you even bother reading the post? She said she deposited the money she made WAITING TABLES and at the end she said that the teller thought she was a stripper. Both of those things make it clear that she is not a stripper.
