I never had issues doing that when I worked a register not long ago.
Sometimes it's funny to hand them 5¢ if the total is like $10.07 or something. I find it funny to do, especially after they've entered the total in the register (they usually tell you the change)
True Story: Many years ago I applied for a stocker/checkout position for a local grocer. Before I was given an application...I had to take a 10 question math test. The math problems were questions like "If cans of peas are 3 for a dollar, how much would you charge for 2.
I finished the test in a few minutes and gave it back to the receptionist. She gave me a look that said..."You poor dear....giving up so soon?"
She grades it and looks up at me with eyes as big a saucers and says "You Aced the Test!"
I was shocked but had a pretty good idea of where we were headed as a society...and now...here we are.
I remember my consumer education class in 9th grade in 1973 making us all do this in front of the class with the teacher playing the customer with students having to make change. We also were put into pairs to simulate being married and given real life scenarios of jobs, living expenses etc and forming a budget and then demonstrating to the class how we survived on the income we had. Now I work with low-income families who don't understand that if they bring home $1000/month, they can't afford $1200/month rent unil I literally show them the math.
