Absolutely, yes! This is something he has to do all day, and gets fired if he does mental math wrong. An easy thing 1000 times is hard.
No, an easy thing 1000 times becomes trivial. I am speaking as someone who worked as a cashier for a long time. I agree with the person above you... It's terrifying. They are making their own job more difficult because they don't want to add 1. You're more prone to making an error the more change you have to give back.
I was a cashier too! Errors came from doing something weird outside of the process, not numbers that didn't end in .00. In the training they explicitly said to not play that game because people will scam you.
I just don't see how this isn't the process. If you understand what the dollars and cents mean then it's still just adding 1. I was also a cashier for years and never ever saw this be an issue. I met or trained dozens if not hundreds of cashiers and this was never such a problem that couldn't be learned. If you can be trusted to handle cash you should be able to handle adding small values to a number
