Now this is definitely one of my all time favorite (is that possible?) random bads. You go to the store to pick something up and you go to pay cash for it. Say the total is $2.12 and all you have is a $20.00. You pay for the item and the cashier hands you cluttered handful of stuff in return. Inside the handful is the receipt, a bunch of paper bills, and a bunch of coins. You struggle with this because you have to hurry to put away the cash, store the coins separately, and find a place for the receipt. You feel rushed because people are behind you waiting, and the cashier is now trying to hand you your item.This exact situation was one of the original inspirations for this blog. It's such a simple situation that comes up, but it causes a certain feeling of annoyance. Thankfully the birth of the credit/debit card has minimized this situation.

I have on many occassions commented to cashiers about this as I am male and carry a wallet not a purse. Most are appologetic but I have been told that they were not just taught but ordered to do this. Some will change, most won't or can't change. It is just a simple change option, men carry wallets women carry purses.
