I often have ten grand 'Knots' (a hood term for a tied up, money clipped wad of cash). I'm a cash money guy obviously due to my AP. But when I get back to the room, I will orient them properly. I'd rather not hold up the line, and I want to get my cash out of sight as soon as possible. In public, like at the cashier's window, I'll usually put the bills away quickly, even if it means having them in the wrong order or orientation.

Big bills toward the back of the wallet, small bills to the front. All my bills have to be right-side up with all the presidents facing the same way. The machine just gives them a wad of bills, which they hand to me.īTW, I am pretty much a cash OCD guy. The tellers don't even count the bills out any more. However, all the tellers now have money counters that distribute the bills. Link to original postMy bank used to do this for withdrawals/cash back. I sometimes do it with 100’s otherwise don’t, but was asked by someone once if I worked at a bank when they noticed they were all bank faced.

I don’t know if there’s an argument orientating them one way makes errors less likely, easier for surveillance to see in case of a look back, or if it’s like many things “just because.” I believe the term is called “bank facing.” All tellers at banks anyways as long as I can remember orient it that way.

I do orient my bills religiously usually I'm carrying 2-5k and it bugs me if the bills are not in order.

The training is also a hold over from those days, Next time you get an old small faced $100 bill compare it to a $1 bill & see how similar they used to look compared to today, As a teen I had two entry level cashiering jobs & this was standard training.Īlso nowadays bills are more easily distinguishable. Plenty of them do, but this is just standard training for cashiers. Now obviously guys like us can count and distinguish different bills regardless of denomination or how the bill is oriented, but remember cashiering is usually an entry level & / or low paying job so people cashiering often will not have either the maturity or experience with handling and recognizing large amounts of different types of money. The reason they are trained this way is because it makes the bills easier to count and harder to confuse denominations. This is just how cashiers are usually trained.
