Recently I hired a professional cleaning company to clean my home. We agreed on the price of $79. They only take cash.
So they came and cleaned and then it was time for them to get paid and leave. I handed them a $100 bill expecting $21 in change back. They said they don’t have any change at all. I only had a $100 and a $50 so I could either overpay them by $21 or underpay them by $29. They didn’t do a particularly good job at cleaning so I didn’t want to leave a $21 tip this time.
Eventually I found some coins and managed to pay them $73 and they left angrily.
It seems to me like if your business only accepts cash then you ought to have change. Yet they acted like it is my responsibility to have exact change. Which is it?
This happened to me!!
Hot/food dog stand small side of the road on trailer. I just wanted a sausage dog, he was out of drinks. It was big and 7 or 8 bucks. Not worth but already pulled over and looked good.
I said yes he put it on plate etc. and I hand him the $20. He says I don’t have change for that… I’m like I got that and a $5. He tries to offer me more sausage or ribs. Not worth it to me.
I get it for $5. And bought one when I was back in that side of town 3 months later. Overpaid and now done with him.
