I think you secretly wanna come to the states (add comment of your choice of male RMM member). :ph34r:

But seriously those are some messed up dreams.

I hate it when I go into a store, pay for my purchase, and when the clerk hands e my change, it is almost always the bills first with the cheange on top. What kind of stupid system is that? The change is then free to slide off as you try and put the bills away first. It would be much better if they handed you the change first as it would sit nicely in the palm of your hand and then give you the bills on top.
I used to work in retail and I it took me all of 3 days on the job to realize that this was a superior method of change handling, yet it universally seems to be done the other way.

And that is all.®

Get out of my brain!!! It's not safe there!

I totally agree with you. I too am much peeved by that and I just don't understand it. I think it's because people think in terms of: here's your change, 4 dollars and 18 cents. So they hand it to you in that order. It makes no practical sense though for exactly the reasons you stated. I used to work in a restaurant and would oftentimes have to work the register. I would always give the coins first then the bills. The most irritating, though, is when they give it to you all at once with the change already stacked on top of the bills. When that happens, I usually will give a few friendly tips to the person working the register.

Like, you should wear shorter skirts or something like that. You know, useful advice. :2thumbsup:

Yeah, the whole stack of change thing is the worst. Then I don't want to be a douchebag and hold up the line trying to put the money in my wallet/pocket(old people are terrible for this) so I move out of the way and have to juggle my purchase and my disorderly mess of change and bills, which I usually just end up crumpling into a ball and stuffing in my pocket.

I've been there, man, I've been there!

And when I say I've been there, I mean in that damn line behind you while you're fiddle-fucking with your change. Let's get a move on buster!!!

Okay, I just had to throw that in there. But really I know what you mean. I'll usually just side step to get out of the way and sort out my money and put it back in my pocket. But, like you, I still feel like I'm in the way so I just end up shoving in back in my pocket all disorganized.

Oh, well. It's not like it happens a lot. Who the heck has enough money to pay for something and then get change back on top of that??? Sure as hell not I

They gave you a debit card

I can't even get my bank to give me a checkbook for my checking account. Apparently a negative balance isn't a good thing :unsure:

I thought it just meant that they start writing you checks

Stupid debit card. The first nine transactions were only a penny. Then they jacked up the price!

Hmmm. At first I thought it sounded a little like a homerism, but I can't think of when that would have happened. I even cheated and searched for it, but alas, no homer quote regarding debit cards.

Perhaps it's a Gnappsterism :unsure:

I twisted the quote though. It wasn't about debit cards at all

Blasphemy, a truly great episode. Tom, the bigger brother; Pepi, the little brother, the Corey Hotline. It had it all.

Administrator: And what are your reasons for wanting a Little Brother?
Homer's brain: Don't say revenge! Don't say revenge!
Homer's mouth: Uh, revenge?
Homer's brain: That's it, I'm gettin' outta here. [footsteps, and a door slam]

The administrator ticks off ``revenge'' on the application and
welcomes him to the agency.
