They are too young to know that the reason is you HAD to face your bills was so when the bookkeeper made up the bank deposit from the day’s receipts, THEY didn’t have to, because the bank would throw a fit if they got mis-aligned bills. Now the auto-counting machines can read them upside down and backwards.

You are correct in that we never know what the people around us might be going through. The Bible tells us Jesus and the angels visit with us. They don’t wear signs or badges saying who they are, BUT they do appear as all types of people – both counter girls, rude customers, and others. Seems you witnessed a teaching moment, provided possibly, by the angels or even Christ himself. Lessons: patience and compassion, both of which go hand in hand with manners.
