Today, I had an elderly man come to my cash register. His total came to $15.50 He handed me $5 in nickels and dimes. A full roll of quarters. Before I could take the roll, he bust it open, making me count it. After that was all counted he was 50 cents short. So he handed me a $10 bill. FML

I feel your pain OP. Some asswipe made me count out 13$ and some odd change, in pennies, came up short then pulled a crisp twenty out of his back pocket to pay with. Some people are just dicks like that.
