On public schools: I recently went to a McDonald's for a breakfast biscuit- the total was $2.02. I handed the cashier (a grown woman, not a teenager) a fifty-dollar bill and two cents. Her computer was down, and she couldn't figure out that my change was $48.00. CASE CLOSED!

I once handed a cashier, about age twenty, two fifty-cent pieces.
She gave me a blank stare and asked "What are these?"
It's sad that there are a lot of people working at burger places who aren't qualified. One time I went to a fast food place and gave the person a $20 and they shorted me $2.00 on the change. I pointed out it was wrong, and they said they couldn't give me any more change because they were out of ones. I said I would take quarters. The girl had to get the manager, and it took him a couple of times to catch on also.
