    Sometimes a new tray with a set amount as a baseline is used when a different manager takes over and the old tray is counted. End of day the whole tray js taken to the office and counted.

Resulted in permanent muscle damage and 17 years later I still struggle with my back. Those trays are damned heavy.

    I dropped 3 at once, once. https://imgur.com/a/Ltw8hmQ

    The saving grace was that I knew each of the three had exactly $200 in them. So I could count what was in them, and then fill in the remaining coins to reach $200. Also, our money counter weighed things, to count the money, so once I picked it up I wasn't recounting by hand.

    Same here. In my case I just threw the coins in the trays with a note for the next manager that the tills were correct but each one was going to be short or over. But they will be offsetting to the others.

    I dropped them minutes before we opened. I needed to get them out on the floor so we could use them that day. I had one that didn't spill, so I put that one out and then hid myself in cash office to fix the spill. It would not have been fair to leave it for the closing manager. I had time while the store was open to fix it, they wouldn't have had as much time after we closed to do it.

    Oh man. Sounds like they dropped after you did the cash drop. I had this happen before I counted for the night and had to pull transactions to see how much cash should be in each register and hope it was all there. I don’t miss that at all.

    parent root

    It was 3 minutes before we opened.

    I knew how much was in them because they got balanced to $200 the night before. I had one till that didn't spill, put that one out for the cashier, and told everyone else that the rest of the registers were card only for now. Then I got to spend some time in the cash office fixing my mistake.

    I remember having to close one day and counting the drawer, but it was short $20. I was in an absolute panic so I recounted multiple times as this was the first time I was ever short. Then I accidentally dumped the drawer on the floor just like she did. I ended up staying almost 2 hours OT because I still had to clean the store.

    The next day my manager asked me why I stayed so late, and was about to scold me for taking to long, but I said I was $20 short and I had to recount multiple times, didn't mention I dropped the drawer though.

    She was like "oh yeah I forgot to tell you I borrowed $20 from the till for cups for an earlier pizza party"

    I said "oh we had a pizza party?" Apparently no one saved me any, my manager did approve the OT.

    Back in like 2008, I had a panic attack when this happened after a double shift in front of my new boss. She said it was fine and that she'd handle it.

    The next day I had a meeting with loss prevention who claimed $100 was missing from my till. I explained that I dropped it, and panicked so the new manager told me to go home, and when they watched the tapes. Our store manager, who passed me as I was leaving, walked out, found 2x $50 bills on the floor and pocketed them. Then, when they couldn't cash out the till properly, he went "looking" for the money, not finding it and ultimately throwing me under the bus.

    He was fired a few months later for being inappropriate with staff, as far as I know he never gave the money back.

    The problem that she faces is if some of that change rolled under cabinets that she can’t reach. Many businesses are sticklers for shortages, if even just a few cents. It’s especially problematic at the end of a shift. At the beginning, it’s easier to count because you know what should be in there.

    This register setup here is especially tight. I’d probably place the drawer on the ground until I can maneuver everything properly, then pick it up and seat the drawer. It’s situations like these that teach you better ways. She’ll only do this once.

    parent

    Honestly I'd probably try to get as much as I could easily and then recount the till. If it's short by only a few cents/dollars I'd probably just from my pocket, eat the loss, and do better the next time.

    I work at a store where the safes in the back, checkouts at front. So, everytime I clock in I have to walk through a customer-filled store with $150 When I clock out I can either do the same with as much as $10k in the register, or trust my managers to. Best part of this is our camera system chronically turns off. It's also comically easy to detect because the cam wifi system runs under the name COMPANYNAMEHEREcam. which is broadcast by any device with wifi capabilities.

No lock or anything. Also it was a temp job, but they wouldn't tell you that before they let you go.
