First of all, this blog has been inactive for quite a long time...sorry about that..
Anyway, we were eating in a restaurant and the bill amounted to RMxx.25 after the rounding up / rounding down adjustment introduced by the Bank Negara not too long ago.
So, we paid and of course we are expecting the change to be RMx.75. However, what came back to us is short of 5 cents.
Well, you may think what is the big deal with 5 cents but why bother charging us the 5 cents when the restaurant is not bothered to return is the 5 cents?
If a restaurant short change 100 customers by 5 cents each day, in a month, it will get RM5 x 30days which is equivalent to RM150.
If let's say the restaurant is running out of 5 cent coins, at least return 5 cents more to customers rather than to return less. We think that it is the restaurant's responsibility to ensure that there are enough change for it's operations.
Will you tell off the cashier if they short change you next time?
