I've seen and heard of two situations for money to be laying around. The first is as bait for potentially dishonest employees. An example I was told of is coin channels in vending machines being plugged up to try to catch servicing personnel stealing. The second situation is one I see all the time. I often work in customers homes while they're off to work or running errands. It's not unusual for me to see cash laying on a countertop on the first day a job. I've never discussed it with customers, but I'm sure it's a test of my honesty.
