No this story did not happen in 2014, just seemed a nice title.
First some Back ground. At the time I was a cashier/stock person. Third shift. The rule was, if it is money we HAVE to take it.. regardless. Keep this in mind.
Now the store I worked in was between a nice neighbor hood and a ghetto. This is not important, except that at the end of the month.. lots and lots of coins then. Lots. Hardly ever rolled or anything.
Well I had just come on the clock, and was told that they need cashier more then stock..so up to the register I go. Very first customer. They had a full cart full. Forget the total, but it was up there. And.. they brought out a rather large jar of coins... and.. I had to count EVERY SINGLE ONE. This is NO lie, it took 2 hours for one customer. The customer really wasn't sucky about it (thus why I have no posted this before). I know the count was over 100+ dollars. In change. No ability to say 'Um no we can't accept this'. The good part is never got hollared at or in trouble of any kind. By the end of it though..I was sure I would have nightmares about coins.
