This morning I was in Harbor Freight Tools. The line seemed abnormally
long and one register had a "Cash Only" sign on it. It was also very
quiet.

The Point of Sale system was down. They said it was down at all stores
and it had been down since Friday. They were writing up bills of sale by
hand, and using a calculator to calculate 25% discounts, sales tax, and
totals. I wanted to tell the cashier that she could multiply by 0.75 and
that she didn't have to multiply the price by 0.25 and then store that
and then subtract that amount from the full price, but the last time I
tried to explain that to a cashier at CVS she insisted that it wouldn't
be right.

Was this the same gal who could not sell you a half
dozen donuts, but could sell you one, six, or twelve
donuts?


I walked into a fast food joint that had frozen yogurt and when I asked
the cute girl behind the counter for a large, she said they didn't sell
a large. I pointed out the next size up foam bowl and told her to put it
in that one and charge me for two smalls. It was like I asked her to
disrobe but I got my large yogurt. ^_^


She wasn't a DD but had two Bs?


She was cute and I never try to be nasty to any of them. There are
enough nasty people in this world for them to deal with. ^_^

TDD


Sometimes it's good to be nasty. Don't beat me
up on this...
