Is what my bill was at the golden arches drive thru. I have a cup of change in the truck. I gave him (25 years old or so) eleven quarters , a dime and two pennies. I waited at the pay window. He sorted the money , counted the quarters , looked at me , put them in stacks of two , looked at them , put them in stacks of three. He looked at me again . I asked if he had enough money. I guess , he replied. If I owned a restaurant , this is who I would want taking my money.    da prez |

Should have given him a two dollar bill, two quarters, three dimes, a nickel, and two pennies. Not only would they still be trying to figure out if it was enough, they'd be calling the police, thinking you were giving them fake money.
It's truly sad. My 8 year old son could do a better job.

a few years ago I got 500 bucks worth of 2 dollar bills. We give our boys a couple for Christmas, Easter, Birthdays, Tooth fairy stuff like that. I got started on it when i was young when our bus driver would give everyone that rode his bus a 2 dollar bill every year for christmas. Sometimes i like to give them out at fast food joints and have been told several times that it was fake and they would not accept it. I laugh and tell them to check again. It amazes me that people can not count simple change. My 8 year old could do better than most working at McDonalds. And these very people think they deserve 15 bucks an hour when they can't even do the simplest of jobs. |

You can't educate someone who refuses to be educated. I've been in public education for 41 years. Former students have become medical doctors, lawyers, Ph.D. recipients, medal of honor recipients, janitors, McDonald's cashiers, accountants, bus drivers, etc. It's not the system as much as the individual.  |

Still do this at a fast food jernt. Let em wring up yer bill hand em a 10 or 20 dollar bill and as they are punchin it in reach over to their side and cover the readout with yer paw.  I will Just bout guarandamntee deer in the headlights look. Here be some food fer thought-these geniuses will be pickin Our nursing homes! When I had the paper route NONE of my weekly bills were even money. ALWAYS 1 or 2 dollars and 17 23 38 cents or some such. Wanna guess who made up shortages? Dad Made Sure it would NEVER happen to me. RIDE SAFE. |
