After being served at a famous US fast-food chain, a TikToker was criticized for expecting the cashier to return her change. The story went viral on the platform.
A TikToker named Emily claimed she was criticized for waiting for her change at a restaurant from a well-known US fast-food chain. The story quickly went viral on social media.
In a video with over 100,000 views, Emily shared that after paying less than $7 for her lunch, she stood at the counter waiting for her change.
“I gathered all my courage and said: ‘Oh, I think you forgot my change,'” Emily recounted, to which the cashier immediately replied: “You want 64 cents?”
“Yes, I want my 64 cents. I’m not asking you to take it out of your own pocket, but unless the price increased during this transaction, yes, I would like my 64 cents,” the TikToker replied.
She added that she had a two-year-old child and diapers weren’t cheap, so she wanted her 64 cents back. However, when she got home, she noticed the cashier had returned only 55 cents.
Users defended Emily, sharing their experiences of facing similar criticism.
“This has happened to me too!!! Why do people think I don’t want my money just because it’s in coins?” one user commented.
“I gathered all the coins from my car and got $57! Yes, I want my change!” another protested.
