3 0

Answer:

That is an oxymoron.

Explanation:

An oxymoron is a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction. In this case, the contradictory terms that are in conjunction are "terribly" and "nice". These words are words that mean the opposite of each other - with terribly usually being used to describe something bad - and nice being used to describe something good - and are being put together.

Suppose you give a customer change back for a $20, but she had given you a $50. she is a regular customer and will be returning
wolverine [178]
You should tell your manager because the manager probably knows the person if the person visits the store all the time. Then when the person comes back, you can give her back the money, that is, the manager can do it, and your manager can say that you found it and that you're a good and an honest worker.
