[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 3814090, member: 13337"] I work part-time retirement job at a liquor store,,, The owner is always on my butt for not asking that question. It's to save the cost of the register paper,,, But it seems ridiculous to me. What irks me is at the McDonalds I frequent,,, The dumb-arse kids [B][I]always [/I][/B]ask me if I want my pennies. I called one on it one day by saying,,, "Why in heavens name would I [B][I]not [/I][/B]want my pennies? The kid said, "because they are just pennies,,, My response to him was, "Yeah, but they are [B][I]my [/I][/B]pennies.",,, "Fork 'em over before I get angry and do something I'll probably regret!" After this happened to me on multiple occasions,,, I parked and went inside to talk to the manager. He told me that the kids were doing this on his direction,,, When I asked him "Why?", he said it was "more efficient not to have to count pennies" My reply was a resounding "Huh?" He said even though the Point of Sale computer will calculate the change for them,,, Way too many of his teenage employees get confused by pennies in change. Heaven forbid I give them pennies to make my change come out even,,, That would probably (and it often does),,, Make their tiny brains go blank. I just shook my head in disbelief and went back to my car,,, I go to the McDonalds across town now. If they aren't smart enough to count pennies,,, How can I trust them to make my food?. Aarond .
