That's how I roll

By StellaSanguina - 09/10/2009 03:17 - United States

Today, a buttmunch customer brought in $7 worth of pennies I had to count and roll. As I was putting them in the deposite box at the end of my shift, I fumbled and dropped the rolls. All but one broke, spilling their contents on the floor. FML

You do know that in some areas o the work it's illegal to pay with excessive amounts of change... right? I know I'm allowed to smile and tell customers that I'm not legally allowed to take more than 26 pennies in a single transaction. There's a limit on everything else too but I happened to memorize the penny limit because the damn things suck.

Pennies are still legal tender. Legally a store is obligated to accept any type of bill/coin as long as it is legal tender.

no. it's twix. twix pwns your butterfinger.

Are you freaken serious? He's an asshole for paying in change??? Maybe the guy is just poor and the change is all he has? Why in the world would he let coin star take 8 cents from each dollar when he can just use the money. Money is money and he can legally use it so suck it up.

I totally agree with you, sir/lady.

He could've gone to a bank to exchange the change for free.

thats when you take $6 from your wallet and put it in the deposit box along with the one roll of pennies still intact and go home.

First, IF you work in a bank you should accept the money. It's your ******* job to count money, no matter the denomination. This really boils down to character and compassion. If you have a good character, you'll count the money because it would be in your nature to be helpful. I'm sure you get paid hourly, what's it matter if you spend your time counting 700 pennies or $14,000 in all $20s? Change your mentality and good karma will come your way.

I agree! Its called having a job, and responsibility. You get paid for it so stop ******* whining.

are you in the 17th century?? Get a counting machine!

After reading all the disgusting stories of rolls of belly fat, I find this story about "rolls" refreshingly unoffensive. Now, if I can only hear a charming, wacky story about a blumpkin, I'd be set.

@ 41: why the **** are you automatically assuming the OP works in a bank? because the bank is the only place that takes money? are you retarded? why aren't you high schoolers in class??

Oh, I hate it when people do this. I work at McDonalds and it seems to be the number one place for people to pay with change. Just be happy the pennies were rolled and not in a little ziploc bag
