I think the most stressful experiences I ever had as a bank teller were dealing with large quantities of cash. Sometimes they hand you a wad and you're supposed to count it all and make sure that it's correct and then get them moving as fast as possible. On a busy day it's even harder because you're trying to do it quickly so you can get to the next person so people don't get upset that you're taking a long time. I've had, I remember one time I had thousands of dollars in my hand and I was trying to count so fast and it was not going well and then the person behind them was like getting cranky about it and sometimes that's just how the cookie crumbles. So that was really stressful and then you get worried that your drawer is going to be off or that you're going to count wrong and that just adds to the stress.
