OP is an ass for doing this, but if the girl working the register was not half retarded and cared enough to count, there would be no way for anyone to exploit her(I'm sure there would be a way, but it would be a lot moe difficult than not giving her enough money)

Sorry that I wasted bandwith by posting the obvious. Hopefully this post will appeal to you more.

Where do you work? How easy is it for members of the public to get into this canteen?

This is a short contract down in Surrey for a big media firm. Amazingly badly run, having people who can't count handling money pretty much sums it up. They're doing well, but they'd be completely cleaning up with competent management - they don't need me here for a start, there's barely any work to do.

Canteen is in a staff-only area, so no visiting for free lunches, I'm afraid.

In American please:

Till = ???

I'm all for jumping on the funny-talking foreigners but this is a pretty commonly used word in America.

I have worked at cash registers before and never heard this term. Maybe it is an outside of the midwest thing.

Look like a good few areas have it, but still considered regional vocabulary:

You guys have never heard the phrase "Caught with his hand in the till" before?

I must be getting old or the school system is much worse than is commonly feared.

No, I understand, and I know what a till is, but I have no clue how the british currency system works. Ten pound two?? For all I know, he could have paid her more than she owed.
