Insult female cashier (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dismiss

'cashier' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'insult female' is the wordplay.
'insult' becomes 'dis' (I've seen this in another clue).
'female' becomes 'miss' (miss refers to a young woman).
'dis'+'miss'='DISMISS'

(Other definitions for dismiss that I've seen before include "Sack (from job)" , "Remove from office" , "P45" , "Throw out" , "Fire - cashier" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
