Rang out an older woman today, maybe 60-ish. Forget what she purchased, but her total came to $6.34. In her hand, she held a 10, a 5, and a 1. She handed me $6 and looked away, all around, in that "if I don't look at you, I don't have to acknowledge you" kinda of way.
I waited a beat or two and nicely asked "Do you have the change?"
She surprised me by ripping the $6 out of my hand, literally YANKING so hard she smacked her own hand back on her purse, like she expected me to resist. Then she SLAMMED the 10$ bill into my hand, so hard the back of my hand smashed onto the counter. I pulled my hand back and because I was so shocked, I said "Excuse me?" (Because I couldnt think of a polite way to say "What the Fuck, lady??"
She had those crazy shaky rage eyes, and said "EXCUSE ME?? I GAVE you SIX DOLLARS!"
I entered the 10$ as payment, and said "Maam, your total was $6.34..."
and she started muttering something but I cut her off...
"Out of $10, your change is $3.66" Handed it to her, with her receipt and a very dirty look, and told her to have a nice day.
I think she was hoping I wouldnt notice that she'd shorted me .34 and when she didnt get away with it she got pissed.
