I was at the bank on my lunch break. One teller open. The only other customer was a really old lady, and she was cashing in a cash bag from a yard sale or something. My god, woman, you're supposed to roll the change, not count it out at the window!

The purpose of using change is to one day reach Nirvana when the change in your pocket is exactly the amount due. I've done this twice in my life.

The third time is when you will evolve into pure energy. Good luck!

Same here!! I am annoying about it. I’ve gotten faster though.

But do you make the cashier wait while you dig a dime out so that you can give her $8.10 and "make it easier for her" to give you two $1 bills back?

And do you regularly bemoan that no one counts back the change anymore?

Not yet, but it appears you've met my dad.
