      @@gorilladisco9108 - Just a matter of knowing who you know... Back in the late 80s early 90s I used to go to a gaming club down a street known for it's red light activities. One of the tattoo places down there was run by a Hells Angels member, on top of that they also ran Harley Davidson tours and had a Harley trike they used for such. Now, I was riding a motorbike back then and they allowed me to park at the very end while they used the rest of the parking spots and they would cover the motorbike parking signs, legally since they were permitted to do it on set days. Now, it wasnt just that group that would run the tours, there were two other 'notorious' biker gangs that also did the tours with them. These guys however were teddy bears back then, unlike they are today and infact they effectively left the family because of how it started heading. Anyway, I digress.
      This one day I came back to my bike to find a council parking inspector writing a ticket for my bike, the guys were out on the tour. So I asked what he thought he was doing and he told me giving me a ticket for being illegally parked. I asked him how I was illegally parked, and at this point the guys were coming back from their tour. OF course the inspector had paused in his writing to look at me and just pointed to the sign. So I put my hand to my ear and went "WHAT? I CANT HEAR YOU!?!" So he went back to his writing. Well, the Hells Angel member sees the inspector, hears me say I cant hear him and looks to me, frowns, then steps over to the inspector right as he finished writing the ticket and took it from him and tore it up, then loudly asked the inspector on why he was writing a legally parked motorbike. Of course, having someone that stands almost a foot over you wearing biker leathers had the inspector take a step back and go... "He's... with you guys?" One of the owners of the tattoo shop had stepped out at this point, saw what was going on and stepped over asking what was happening and the other member goes "This dumbass was giving our mate a parking ticket.." Lets just say the inspector quickly asked for it back and said there must have been a mistake and quickly walked off, never had issues with any parking fines after that lol

      These stories remind me of when my old health insurance providers kept sending me checks that I had no clue what they could be from. I ask about one and they say it's the compensation for a colonoscopy (which I never had, and still never have) and even though they believe me, they gave me the clear to cash it. This kept happening, and I never got clear answers, so I never cashed them, nor replied to any letters asking about them. I was not going to risk being accused of fraud at that point. Since then I've gotten on my employers insurance.

      Technically speaking, OP *should* have contacted her supervisor and if the University claimed to not care and it really bothered OP, go to the local newspaper.
      After 9 years though, I'm guessing that if OP did go to a state university, someone probably caught the error and realized that it's the fault of the woman. Legally, I'm pretty sure that as soon as the accountant who filed the reimbursement said it was not a problem, the university was just SOL.

    Sale discount story: And that is why you just might want to let a store employee finish what they are trying to tell you. Oops!
    Over reimbursed story: OP, you tried to fix it and the person responsible just refused to hear you and actually look at it. Something similar happened to my mother years ago when she was Christmas shopping and I was still a toddler (around 1958). She was given change back for her purchases but was given back $20 too much. Normally mom would have returned that money, but the cashier had been very rude. So mom took the money and did more Christmas shopping... elsewhere. That $20 from back then would be worth about $214 in today's money. So we had an extra nice Christmas that year. It pays to be polite.
    Beer money story: Very well done OP! Hopefully, the kid learned something that day.
    As for the commenter who just threw money on the counter while walking out with the beer, HELL YES I would call the cops. I don't want to be busted for selling alcohol to a minor and the store's CCTV would back me up. I'm only surprised he wasn't banned from the store(s) after that.

    With the College story: After several documented failed attempts, and a 2 year hold in a saving account- nope according to the US treasury that money is OP's free and clear. If you make multiple offers to settle a bill or correct an accounting mistake and the issuer in question denies the error, bill or refuses legally recognized currency then the bill or debt is considered void and the person trying to address the situation is free and clear. This works for any place where legal currency for a bill or debt is refused be it a college, a grocery store, a law or medical office, or a contracted service. Most likely the reason OP never hard about it again was when they noticed the discrepancy and looked at the acceptance with the notes and documented dates and times when he tired to fix it and their employee denied the error there was nothing they can do... Except fire the lady in the financial aid department for her rudeness, her belligerence and the fact that she stole, and gave away to a random person, over 10K. There was nothing they could do to OP, it was their error that they denied. Um... "Bank error in your favor collect 200 ( in this case 10 thousand) dollars"

    Story One: This reminds me of an issue that used to happen annually where I work. Basically, once a year in early December the company gives every employee a one-time "extra fifteen percent off on one entire purchase" bonus, which can be combined with our regular employee discount for a total of twenty five percent off. And it does indeed mean 'one entire purchase' so it's totally allowed to exploit the crap out of it by loading up multiple carts. Nowadays, this works through the scanning of a special one time use bar code so there's no risk of errors, but it used to be that the system automatically applied the bonus discount the first time an employee swiped their discount card once the bonus went live... And every year there was at least one unfortunate who forgot and, grabbing a bottle of soda on their way to break, got their extra bonus off on a one dollar purchase.

When the “OG” heard he was heated and made the “yg’s” come and pray at my mom’s feet asking for forgiveness. Then he made them wash dishes at the restaurant for like 2 weeks. They always looked out for my mom. Some of them use sit in the booth table with me and help my brothers and I with homework. Then another time when my brothers got jumped, they found out who it was….

    Story 6: Oh boy, that manager's argument "who would even counterfeit a 10 or 20 dollar bill" is idiotic. It's exactly BECAUSE nobody expects it that counterfeiters will do it. When I worked as a cashier, the first counterfeit I came across was a 20, and we didn't have machine to check so we all had to hold it up (they can't insist we check the bills and say we can't resort to our only option). And yes, a lot customers don't like that. Now I work in our booking office and from time to time we do get obvious fakes, even "movie money", bills that clearly indicate they are not real.

      Lower bills get less scrutiny. You walk into a story and buy $9 worth of food and pay in cash, a 10 or a 20 would be reasonable. A 50 or a 100 would not. 50's and 100's are usually used for bigger purchases. If you don't want to get caught making fake bills, you make them worth less because people automatically think "Well what's the use in fake 5's 10's and 20's?".
      Typically large forging operations make smaller bills to be passed off locally.

Then I handed back the real bill saying, "This could still be fake, but at least it is printed on the right kind of paper.".
