i give them back the extra..Originally posted by sarah_webincIf you are are at a shop and the person behind the counter gives you too much change back do you keep the money or let them know and give them back the extra?
even if its a business that has pissed me off a dozen times (like mcdonalds
), i still do it because the person running the register is generally responsible for paying the loss out of their pocket..
not cool to steal period, and definitely not from people who are working to make ends' meat in fast food et al.254342256Comment

I never count it, I just take the change and throw it in the bag, I don't have time to count cents and dollars so I wouldn't know if they overpaid or underpaid me. I usually just want to get out of the store as fast as possible. I don't think I ever actually count what they gave me, I'm too lazy and don't really care...Comment

This is usually what I do too.Originally posted by rantsI never count it, I just take the change and throw it in the bag, I don't have time to count cents and dollars so I wouldn't know if they overpaid or underpaid me.

I do return the money if it's obvious though, and it has happened a few times.
Like I pay with a 50e bill, and get 3 20e bills back or something silly...and I'm off.Comment

GIve it backComment

I give it back too, but that line bothers me. Why in the world would it be the responsibility of some clerk making minimum wage if there is a loss? If they suspect foul play then fire the mofo.. but making someone pay for honest mistakes is fubar..Originally posted by studiocritic... because the person running the register is generally responsible for paying the loss out of their pocket.. ...
I hope that is not the way things are in the USA and I can tell you that that would NEVER EVER happen in Denmark. Employees actually have rights here.Comment

I dont check most of the time, but if I notice I give back.

The one and only time I have been fired in my life was working for CVS drug store after over a year of service when I was 17. My register was $20 OVER at the end of the day and they fired me for that.Comment

What kind of stores are some of you guys are shopping at?
Every cashier I deal with does two counts, once when it comes out of the register and again as they had it to you, counting aloud from smallest denomination up. The register screen shows exactly how much I should be getting back and I just silently count along with them as they give it to me.
Then I just shove it into my pocket and assume we were all correct

Yep that's what they here too. I don't count along though cause I'm too lazy and terrible in math. I just assume they count right, and then I throw the money in the bag. I'm always in a hurry... Sometimes I'm too tired to put change back in my wallet so I just throw it in the bag. If im lazy to put it in my wallet I'm not going to have the energy to count along.Last edited by rants; 06-01-2006, 04:59 AM.Comment

The one time i never gave it back, was about a year ago at the bookmakers. I was due around £45 in winnings, but the woman paid me £170 for some reason. I took it, and left the shop. Kinda felt bad about it, but when i asked someone, they said it wouldn't come out of her pocket, but the shop itself...Comment

i always give it back unless i don't check and notice that i have too much change by the time im already home or something. i mean im not going to drive back and give them the money for there mistake. but if i notice when i get my change i always give it back.Comment

I seldom count the change unless its a substantial amount.
As for minimum wage clerks having to pay shortages at the end of the shift, I have issues about that.
Years ago I worked a midnight shift at a local gas bar - and for a while the station owner tried making it policy that employees had to pay any shortages in the till from their own pocket.
"Fine," I said. "But I want the dividends whenever the cash drawer is over-balance at the end of the night." Naturally he wasn't willing to do that. I rallied the rest of the employees and we all told him the same thing. After a while he relented and didn't try enforcing employees to pay shortages.
Unless its a large amount (or happens on a consistent basis) - I can't imagine a company being so cheap and petty that they'd try and force people to pay out-of-pocket.Comment

Usually I give the money back, but a couple of times I kept it because the person behind the counter pissed me off.

I always give it back. Most times they look surprised when I do which makes me wonder how many actually return it.Last edited by mikeyddddd; 06-01-2006, 08:41 AM.Comment

I think it just depends on the store, but yes typically it comes out of the employees pocket if the register doesn't match the receiptsOriginally posted by mortenbI hope that is not the way things are in the USA
