Today, a customer was paying for his food. As he placed the money in my hand, he said, "Careful, those coins are sticky." I asked why. He replied, "You know, male stuff." FML

pancakelicious tells us more.

To everyone concerned: Yes, I washed my hands afterwards. Also, I couldn't refuse the money since my boss was nearby and watching my every move.

I guess we found out what happened after the visit to the mint.

So was it male stuff or mail stuff?

Your boss hates you and totally set you up, OP. Also for anyone thinking he said "mail stuff"... You don't just say things like that without realizing what you're saying.. He totally said "male stuff" on purpose!!! Because who would use the phrase "mail stuff" anyway.. no one. Nope, not even a postal worker. -____-

And why do you assume the boss hates and set them up? Working fast food myself, you see and hear a lot of weird stuff but would still have to take the money even if the customer had said its sticky because of 'male stuff'. Unless obviously the money is fake.

FYL OP. When I worked as a cashier, we were allowed to ask for another form of payment and if the customer insisted on using that form (sometimes cards were nasty, too) then we were allowed to stop and get gloves.

Well that's a sticky situation

maybe he was a postal employee and he meant "mail" stuff like stamp adhesive.

Unless you work at a factory that makes the adhesive you wouldn't get enough of it on yourself to transfer to coins.

Latex gloves. Latex gloves. Latex gloves. And hand sanitizer. Ew.

Would someone please explain to me how this is OP's fault? That's really gross
