Teller hijinx... is this common? Is it a big deal?

I'm a teller at a small credit union branch whose employees are a tight knit group. This is my first job being a teller. It happened once that my drawer was over less than a dollar at closing, and the other tellers (including the head teller) tried to pressure me into not reporting it so that I'd balance. They actually told me it didn't matter and would make our branch look bad, and for less than a dollar. I reported it anyway cause I'm a rule follower and I didn't want to jeopardize my job, especially for less than a dollar.
Then it happened more recently that I bought money from the vault and there was a wrong denominational bill mixed into the packet. Coincidentally, it shorted me the exact amount I know my coworker was short earlier this week (but said she "figured out" before close). The head teller doesn't verify the money we sell to the vault, by the way. Unfortunately, I didn't discover the problem upon receipt of the order. I did run the money through the counter when I got it, but I rebundled it and didn't need to open that packet til hours later.
The head teller didn't believe me that it came from the vault. More to shut me up, I think, she went to my computer and withdrew the amount I was short from her personal account and didn't take it from my drawer, thereby "fixing" my problem.
I'm really uncomfortable about this but since it's my only experience tellering... how bad is this???
