ohhh i'm sorry that happened to you

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
Oh, and also... EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Plenty of stores will refuse to take the money under those conditions. It’s bad hygiene.

I would have told them no.

I've seen places with signs saying that they won't accept bra money. Maybe they should add socks to it.

Years ago when I worked at a bank a guy handed me a soggy bill after pulling it out of his pants. The inside, not the pockets.

money is money plus I'd prefer that nasty 100$ cash over digital money any day of the month no matter where it is pulled out from and I've been a cashier at a retail store for a couple a months just so nobody questions my views.

A couple of months? Well, clearly you're the authority on matters involving the whole retail industry, so I have questions.
1) Is it true stores stack beer near diapers so dads combine both in one shop, thus increasing profits?
2) Why does weird shit always happen at Walmart? Are they cursed?
3) Why are British tourists to America still so fucking miserable?
4) Why do coupons have expiry dates? They're paper.
5) Why do you believe that, after only two months of working retail, you think those of us who were repulsed by this story are the ridiculous ones? I'll bet you a sweaty $100 many of us have worked retail far longer than you have, and are also smart enough to reject a bill that's been in someone's sock while their foot was in it. Your views will change in time, but for now, clean up in aisle 4.

that's not what they mean by "keep it 💯"

Sock it to me!

On a hot August day, I had to accept a damp bill the guy had taken out of the waistband of his UNDERWEAR!

What a dick.
