When I was a cashier in a supermarket as a teen, we would be scolded for any shortage more than a dollar! I was almost always a penny or two off, which always confounded me.
The first place I ever worked had an ancient cash register. You had to add up everything the customer bought on paper or on a calculator before you could enter the sale total into the register. If the total was $100 or more you had to break it down into separate transactions. To enter that the purchase amount of $32.17 you had to push the $30 key, the $2 key, the 10 cent key and the 7 cent key. It’s been a few years so I no longer remember if the cash register told you the amount of change or if we figured that out on paper as well. Most of the customers were amazed that i could figure out how to use the register as most people looking at it couldn’t figure out how to even get the cash drawer to open. The cash register was manufactured in the early 1930’s and wasn’t replaced until about 1990.
Make sure you count your cash drawer after you get it, and count it again before you hand it in. I know of people who’ve gotten really [censored] over shortages not of their own making.

If Brad was that bad, why did they continue to let him work at Weenie World, over and over again?

Cost will provide incentive to learn how to make change.

Is a good cash register really that difficult? More difficult than a retail cash register? Or is Brad just that dumb?

The Deluxe Weenie Wagon is way overpriced at 19 bazillion pennies.

I think that there are laws that prevent employers from making employees make up shortages out of their own pocket. In some states anyway.

It’s an illegal company policy.

Even today, so many companies still try to get away with this sort of garbage.
