“Went in with a $100 that the ATM wouldn't accept. They proved it was real through multiple methods but wouldn't exchange it for me and didn't tell me why. I go and deposit it in person and come back to get some breakfast. I tell the shift lead about the whole thing and expressed some slight annoyance. To make it up to me, she gave me my order for free. I feel like an absolute heel for the way I acted but she was understanding and helpful. I am very grateful to the staff for being so kind. Thank you.”
