Was in a shop this afternoon and the shop assistant refused to take a lady’s £10 note. Why? She held the note in her mouth.
My friends who work in retail say it’s a thing done mostly by elderly. Why do they do it? It’s a disgusting habit. Even during the mask compulsory wearing days, a friend caught a customer lowering mask so could hold money in her mouth. The customer denied she lowered the mask.
How would these customers react if staff decided to hold money in their mouths before giving them to customers? They would be horrified. So why do customers think it’s ok to hand over money held in their mouths?
