Yuck, sweaty money

I just went to lunch and the guy in line in front of me was a big guy that was driving a heat & air truck. He was a bit sweaty but not real bad. He paid for his meal and then it was my turn. I ended up with a ten spot that had just come out of his wallet just seconds before it went into the register. Butt sweat covered, limp wet money. Yuck.

I am sure the folks that work the register get butt sweat money all the time. I have had to spend my butt sweat money before so I guess I really can't complain. I have heard that many of the ones we all use have been in some strippers G-string.

A friend of my moms that worked in a bank always complained of the large women that would pull the sweaty money out their bra

I worked as a cashier at a pharmacy in my formative years. One hot summer day, a guy comes in during his jog to buy a gatorade. He pulled the bill from out of his sweaty-assed sock and tried to hand it to me. I told him to put it down on the counter and I used 2 pencils like chopsticks to put it into an empty slot in the register. No way I was touching that, or giving it back to a customer.

Come on guys.

We all probably have money in our wallets right now that was spent at a strip club at some point....

My mom had a young man come in the restaurant years ago he ordered an ice cream cone. To pay for it he spit 3 quarters on the counter. Mom told him to get that off the counter and go get her some clean money. He came back five minutes later with a dollar bill.

I figure every bill is just a paper petri dish, but I'm not worried about it. With a background in construcion, my hands have done dirtier things than handle money.

Isn't there a popular statistic that something like 90% of paper money has traces of cocaine on it?

EDIT: yep. http://www.snopes.com/business/money/cocaine.asp

There's a line in the movie As Good as it Gets with Nicholson about a handfull of sweaty money. And then there's my favorite line: "We're just two people who like warm rolls"

I represented a stripper one time. She gave me the retainer all in $5's and $10's. No doubt in my mind where that money was the night before.

with the kind of work I do, I sometimes have to wring out my cash money and set it in the sun to dry out. and it's usually full of sand also.

I worked at an auto parts store in a poor part of Tampa years ago. I'll never forget one BBW reaching in and pulling cash and change from under her boob. She had to shake her boob to get the change to drop off of the bottom of it.

I used to bartend in topless bars. Most of the money ends up in their shoes (shoe money). I remember one bartender used to charge $7 shoe money for a $5 bill.

dated a stripper long ago and again a couple years ago. she could pick up bills of the table without using her hands. I believe she picked up a quarter once on a dare, I might have have dreamed that though. lol

I`ll take all your butt sweaty money if you don`t want it. Just stick it in an enveloppe with my address on it. This is really dangerous stuff that could cause much harm to your family .

I was talking to my wife about this post. Her first real job out of college was as a bank teller. She remembers a very large lady coming in the bank and going straight to the bathroom. About a minute later out comes the lady with a large handful of very wet cash. Another teller was the lucky one to accept the deposit. She used a pencil to separate the bills and count them. She used two pencils like chop sticks to pile the money into stacks. It went right back to the Fed. This was back in the late 70s so no one had rubber gloves.
