It went down like this:
First, the cashier did the super low fast talk some people do to remind you you’re a tourist, you know less than you think. (I know.)Next, she did not tender the bill as she took my money for the register.After, she short-changed me five pesos, not a lot. Not worth fighting for. But for pride I’d wrestle over fifty centavos.Of course, I corrected her. She denied “the mistake,” saying instead that I was mistaken. I insisted; she became more stubborn.

I increased the volume. She gave me my five pesos.
