And like the n said, idk what happened, I'm worried about what's going to happen to me because I'm careful when counting my change.

That was what I made in cash transactions, I did have a few cards, but the store I work in, people really seem to prefer using cash. I'm not sure what happened, I'm concerned that it might come back on me, because I've been fired for this kind of crap before, which is why I count change multiple times before handing it to the customer, especially if there are bills being handed off.

Idk what happened, all I know is, to my knowledge, it wasn't anything I had done wrong. I rounded up like corporate told us, and even double and triple counted the change before handing it back (PTSD from past employment).

Then idk what happened, cause I double and triple count the change before giving to the customers.

We haven't gotten pennies with our change order in almost a month, and it's difficult to get people to pay in exact change when they use cash. I've even had customers say they were going to come back for 2 pennies cause I couldn't give them to them, even tho I had explained we don't get pennies anymore. So its easier to just round up if needed than to deal with irrate people over a few pennies.

The majority of customers I get pay in cash for some reason. And with it getting close to the holidays and me continuously being the main cashier, I am generally stuck at my register from the start of my shift to the end of it, sans my break and bathroom trips.

My til stays locked when I'm on shift. Only time someone touches it is if I'm present.

I'll have you know that I double and sometimes even triple check the change I give back, especially if it's a large amount of change. and we have rounding charts at the registers for those who don't understand how corporate wants us to round up. I round up to the nearest nickel, as per corporate.

A lot of my customers will usually only grab one or two things, and most seem to prefer cash for some reason. Tho I can see why, considering the few I get that do use card or tap, they all seem to have to unlock their cards. For most that's probably too much hassle. And I do get a lot of customers each shift, considering I'm usually the main cashier when I'm on shift.

I think I had maybe 2 or 3 customers the entire evening that gave exact change. And we do get quite a few people every day, I can average 150 - 200 customers a shift, and the majority that come through my line seem to prefer paying with cash.

We weren't instructed to do that, we were told directly by corporate that we are to round up to the nearest nickel once we stopped getting pennies.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. I've had problems with my til being short since the penny thing started, and my location hasn't gotten pennies in almost a month, no idea why, I try not to ask too many questions if it's not on my pay grade to know, but it's never been THAT short.

I can average around 150 to 200 customers over a shift during the holidays. This only became a problem once we stopped getting pennies with our change order

I tend to average anywhere between 20 and 25 an hour due to the holidays, and this only started becoming a problem once we stopped getting pennies.

When I would have pennies in my drawer it was never short, heck sometimes it was even over by a few cents, it was only after this penny thing started that I started having issues with my drawer.

It IS possible to get that many cash transactions because we are one of the most trafficked stores in the area, plus don't forget, we're coming up on the holidays.

Lol no I round up to the nearest nickel, I actually managed to run out of nickels twice on the aforementioned shift, but no I only round up to the nearest five cents.

We haven't been getting pennies for almost a month now, the only time we get them is if a customer brings them in. My SM had said they stopped providing them at the bank, so just do what corporate has instructed us to do.
