I'm sure everyone knows now that I work @ a Bank haha but yeah recently I post a topic about me counting money a little slow but I got the hang of it and I count it pretty fast now haha.. My cashbox is never over or under the amount and I count thousands of dollars believe thousands haha.. I have to say I enjoy doing it and I love to count money and just doing transactions and printing out account transaction history and helping customers. so far I did over time last week and most likely same thing this week lol, getting paid good money and enjoy what I am doing

Hey do you put some in your pocket once in a while? That was a joke. Anyway i also like to count money especially when i get my payment. I usually take it out of atm and have it at home. I also count and separate my euro coins and every once in a while i go to bank when i reach 50€. The machine usually counts wrong and they have to reinsert a few coins so i'm better. Did you know that around two of each 100 coins are actually fake? At least here

That's the beauty of change. First it's only a few cents, than the pile gets bigger and bigger and soon it's worth changing it or you just let it grow. But if you put some coins on the pile even every third day there will definitely be more money in the pile...unless you take out some change for a snack

I love counting money. Even though I know how much my wallet contains, I always count it over again whenever I add some to it. I love adding and then recounting the money in my wallet.

I am glad you are enjoying your new job. It sounds like you do really well at it as well. I only like to count money if it is mine. It would be awesome to count thousands of dollars of my own.

Hey gardengerty, Yeah I agree with you It would be nice to have that type of money if it was mines or what ever hahaha.. But most of the time businesses will bring in the most business deposits are the most... Most cash and large amounts. Yeah I am very happy where I am @ I feel comfortable lol

Ha, my sister use to work at a bank and she loved it there, but she had to leave because of school. But I use to love counting money. Ever since debit cards became popular I no longer carry cash. So I don't get to count money anymore. But on the plus side, I get to at least see my earnings going up from my online sites, and count that way. Hehe

Hi Payout! Glad to hear you are enjoying what you're doing. Keep up the good work! I was a branch supervisor before, much like an all around girl when one of the staff is on break or on leave. I sometimes do the cashiering. I really hate it when I go short. Who does, right? It would have been really nice if you're counting that much, and it's your money that you are counting!

Keep a lookout for rare coins and bills! I do not know if you are able to put them to the side and then exchange your money for it. If so, you can start a rare collection! I wish I worked in a bank. I love counting money too!!

I do love to count money but lol only if it is my own money that I am counting, ahha. Well I would like to work in a bank but I don't know that I would actually ever apply to one again. I have in the past applied to banks, here in the USA it pays to be bilingual when working at a bank because you can deal with customers who speak english and those that speak spanish as well.

Wow it is all working out! Good for you and hope it continues this way for you and that all keeps running smoothly. You probably get a bit tired of counting someone elses money. But I bet it is fun.

I landed in a job that I never dreamed of (but I have no choice but to accept it and work in order to get paid). I am a government collector and have to handle money every time. When you commit mistake while giving change, you have to pay it. I just hate counting money that does not belong to me. I'm looking forward to transfer at the academe.

When I was a kid I loved seeing my mom or the other elders counting money. They did it so quick and so flawlessly . As a kid, I would try to do the same with the little money I had but I could never be as fast or could hold much money with my tiny hands. It looked really good though when people counted money which kinda looks like a fan =D Anyway I can pretty much count money well these days and fast too. but the thing that amazes me the most are the people working in banks. They count money so fast, I mean real fast. That's just s awesome LOL anyway it's good that you're loving what you're doing. If you love your work, it's more easy

Who doesn't love to ount money? I enjoy this process more when the money is coming to me. it is not as pleasant a task when you have to give the money away.

I have worked in a Bank before. I am glad that you are still feeling good about counting money. My personal experience about that is not as pleasant as yours. Our branch is positioned near a very big and busy food market and many of our customers are shopkeepers there. Every day, they would bring in their money to deposit into their accounts and I have to count them. You can imagine counting money collected in the food market, from guys selling fish and seafood (smell), from butchers (bloody), from vegetable shops (wet with dirt). Every day after work, I wash my hands for 10 minutes and the smell would not go away. I quit as soon as I can find another job.
