Cashier: "Do you have anything smaller?"

You're the one with a drawer full of money!

Except for the fact that sometimes us cashiers don't have enough money in the register for your big bills that you are trying to break because a bunch of other people flashing big bills have already come through!

Some stores only allow a certain amount of money in the drawers, and even make employees drop $20 bills and larger.

I have had so many people come in first thing on a saturday morning to my work and and expect me to break a 100 dollar bill. Yeah. NO. You're getting all 5's and nickels, and now I have to call the head cashier to come break your big bill so I can give everyone else behind you in line change.

It's more the ATM's fault for not dishing out smaller bills �??� I always get stuck with "suspicious" 50s.

Thanks to a recent torrent of spam, I’ve had to disable comments for a while. I’ve now removed the ability to put links in the comments. Email me if you want to put something in, such as five links to knock-off handbag sites, and I’ll happily oblige.

I’ve added two features to the sidebar: Highest Rating and Hotly Debated. They will be updated daily. To my surprise, the ketchup-in-fridge peeve seemed to really incite some anger — it’s clearly a complex situation that affects us all.

It should be noted that the star ratings indicate how much you agree with, or appreciate, the peeve, not how you feel when it happens.

I will be adding a Paragon Peeves section as well, for my and my friends’ personal favorites.

Please enjoy, and contact me if you have any new feature ideas.
