Why do some people have an apoplectic fit if a deli counter item is 0.001 lbs over?

Asked by Naked_Whale_Tamer (400points) February 7th, 2014

I’ve seen people become transmogrified when the item they’re asking for weighs a tiny bit too much.

Like when a customers asks for 1 pound of cheese, and the deli person slices 1.001 pounds (a crumb too much). Is this a first world problem? An American problem?
