It's awful that kids today don't learn how to count back change. I distinctly remember learning that in the 3rd grade. The teacher had play money -- bills and coins -- and we had to practice until we got it right. Amazing.

You gotta give 'em change to tip you with. Five and five ones, baby. Plus, you never give a customer a single ten back as change. You gotta give ‘em change to tip you with. Five and five ones, baby.

Bless her heart, she's really hurting herself by cutting into her money. (Trust me, when I found out that the amount of money I took home each night was dependant on me making correct change, my math skills greatly improved.)

Here at the School of Business, we have a lot of students who need additonal math classes. Sad that the lady couldn't figure out the change that needed to be given. Of course, I'm a math nut so that would have been quite easy for me. Sometimes at stores I have to help the cashier myself. No surprise there.

She didn't have the little box with her tableside. :doh: Rhonda, I thought it was hysterical. :happy2: Kira, I'm mathematically challenged, but even I could follow that. And he was just trying to help her but she was convinced he was trying to cheat her out of money. She seemed bright enough when she took our order.... Andrea, that was the problem.

They don't even know what that is. They do what the little box tells them to do. If you really want to stump them, ask them to count back your change. They don’t even know what that is.
