Awhile back I stopped at the cafeteria where I worked for food. The cashier, G, handed me my change and I noted it was short.
Me: "I gave you a $20."
G: "What? No. You gave me a $10."
Me: "I am pretty sure it was a $20."
G: "I promise you it was $10."
I shrug and wander off with my food, convinced I am right and she is wrong. But given that when she is behind the counter she loads me up on food and doesn't usually charge for the extra, I figured it was even.
Fast forward to the next day when I'm going through line for lunch.
The cashier F sees me.
F: Oh, I have something for you from G.
Me (as eloquent as ever): Huh?
F: (hands me a $10 bill) G said this was yours.
I start laughing. "Yeah"
I see G after I've paid and am heading for my table and is apologizing profusely and explains she was $10 over on her count out and she knew exactly why.
Me: It is no big deal.
She felt bad, though.
The next time through the line:
Me: (hands $20 to G)
G: This is $20.
Me: hahaha
Which became a running joke with us the rest of the time I worked there.
Good people. I miss 'em.
Me: "I gave you a $20."
G: "What? No. You gave me a $10."
