Does anyone want to talk about any obsessive things they think about or do?

I use to be obsessive about making sure the bills in my wallet were in order, all "facing" the same way and with the bill having the same side "up".

I do that, and always have. It's not an obsession, it's just makes the most sense because it's easiest to find the bills you need and see easily how much you have.

When I managed a restaurant, that was one of the performance standards from corporate HQ: cashiers had to keep bills lined up and facing the same way, and present them to customers that way when giving change. We also trained them to offer the bills first, while offering the coins in their other hand. This gave customers a chance to put the bills away neatly without feeling like they'd had a loose mess jammed in their hands. It's a courtesy thing, and it helped us stand out from fast food places.

In return, I always offer my bills to the cashier in the same way.

It still irritates me to be standing in line and have a customer in front of me hand the cashier a crumpled wad of bills. The cashier has to straighten them out just to count them while other people are waiting.

It goes without saying that I hate being handed my change in a wad.
