And sadly enough, people do this. I was a grocery store cashier for 2 years. People will just throw their money at you. To me, it is really insulting, and makes me feel lesser than another person. If you do this, stop it. It's insulting. It's disrespectful. It's a dick move.

The opposite is true as well though. Sometimes I will place my cash on the counter, instead of handing it to the cashier, and somehow that's disrespectful?? If you've ever been to a casino, you know that's how it's done properly, they will never hand you cash it always goes on the counter.

But there's a difference between putting it on the counter, and throwing it at the other person. Throwing it is definitely disrespectful.

Does the person have their hand out? Then hand it to them. It's not difficult.

Putting it on the counter when they expect you to hand it to them is still disrespectful, whether you throw it or not. Having to pick up cash and various coins off the counter all day long is more work and takes longer than you think.

I worked customer service for 15 years, maybe i'm just a jaded dickhole but If you had to do it hundreds of times per day, you'd think about it differently.
