I was working for the toll authority before they got rid of them for ez- pass. This guy comes through with a toll of about 5 dollars. He raised his cupped hands up towards me full of pennies and nickels.

Once I took them he said

"Here you go! Enjoy counting! " while laughing to himself. So I told him

"Enjoy waiting right there until I'm done counting, otherwise I'll call the state troopers to bring you back."

He pouted the entire time while I stacked pennies, and, accidentally knocked them over, having to start again a couple times.

He was over by 20 cents. I gave it back to him and said "Here's your change. Aren't you glad you waited?" :)

Edit: for those worried about the people behind this guy, it was a slow day. No one was waiting but him
