Boy that's closer to the truth than a lot of us want to admit. Just the other day DW bought something and AGAST paid for it with cash and on top of that added change with pennies so she would get back two quarters and guess what ... the sales person couldn't figure it out:E and had to give the DW the change back and then make change based on a whole dollar figure.:R SAD BUT TRUE:(

Larry, every single employee that we hire that is under 30 years old, and often times, not even then, is incapable of counting change. They expect the computer to tell them what change to give. Inevitably, there is going to be a customer that say, "Hey, I just found $.50 in my pocket." after you have entered the amount of cash received. That is why I insist that anyone who must deal with cash in our business learns how to count back change.
It disturbs me greatly that they don't teach the kids this in school or that their parents don't teach them out of a sense of responsibility. I have also met many young men and women that can't read an analog clock. They have never seen anything but digital. Am I that out of date? What will happen if they lost their phone!
Ok. DW took a couple of my 50 cent pieces that are only worth 50 cents to the store. Gave them to the little cash register girl. She didn't know what they were. Even though it says 50 cent right on it. She didn't know how much change to give. Had never seen one before. THATS out of touch.
