    I have learned to count the $20 bills when I cash my check for $500. I do not leave the teller's station until I count them. Although I have only been short changes twice, once is too many. I don't know if the teller would have been disciplined if I had reported them. Can you tell me what the $20 bills are kept in? Even if I get the whole $500 in $1 bills, can I trust their count? I believe that once you have been short change, you lose your trust of that teller. My first job after college was with a CPA firm. We were to audit a bank. My assignment was to watch the tellers to see if they are following the banks policies. I watched one teller take some money and put it in her purse. I reported it to my supervisor. I told him that maybe I was mistaken. He told me to watch the teller the next day. This time I was surprised even more. As the teller closed, she reached into her purse, and put some money into her coin drawer. Her supervisor was also watching and saw the same thing I did. He asked her to come to his office when she finished closing out. My supervisor and the bank manager met with us. He told her what had been reported to him. I was terrified. I had only been working for the CPA firm for a month.
    Anyway, the bank manager asked the teller if she was aware of the bank's policy of closing out. She said that she was, but she said that she knew what the bank's policy was for being over or short and how serious an offence would be and that she just wanted to not be over or short. She was terminated on the spot and had her supervisor and the security officer escort her to her locker to get her personal belongings and turn in her keys. They then walked her to the door.
    I will always remember that incident. That was in 1975. I left the CPA firm shortly after that and took a job with the State of North Carolina's State Auditors Office, then as East Carolina University's Internal Auditor. I am quite the sceptic after 30+ years of watching over peoples' shoulder. I am happy to be retired.
    Sorry for my litany.

    I'll check with Vinny on the spelling. But I think I'm one of the few who got your "make a deposit" comment... LOL.
