Math 050.....

Thought this was pretty funny.....

Last week I purchased a burger for $1.58. The counter girl took my $2
and I was digging for my change. When I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and
gave it to her she just stood there holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while starring blankly at the screen on her register.

I sensed her discomfort and tried to tell her to just give me two
quarters, but she hailed the manager for help.

While he tried to explain the transaction to her, she stood there and
cried.

Why do I tell you this?

Please read more about the "history of teaching math":

production is 4/5 of the price, or $80. What is his profit?

EXACTLY!

I was at the store yesterday and owed $12.45 so I gave the chick a $22.45, she looked at it, took the $20 and the .45, left the 2 dollars on the counter, and counted out $8 in change. WTF? I just stood there and looked at her as she tried to hand it back. "Can I trade you all that for a $10 bill?" I asked. The dude behind me in line just cracked up, she counted it all up and seemed surprised when she came up with...tada....$10. I told her that that was the reason I gave her 22.45, and she goes "Oh, I was wondering if it was a tip". WTF??? The guy behind me was just laughing his *** off.

Flip-Sunday I will be out with the Bobcat.

Rusty - Sunday I will be out with the Bobcat if you still need work done.

That's funny as hell. Where were you at?


"......dhuh, oh geez. I thought that was a tip." I love flint.


That's one other thing that pisses me off. Everyone expects a tip nowadays too. Resevoir Dogs quote, anyone?

WTF are you talking about Timex?

1st he didn't say where he was, but you automatically assume flint?! Then, you say that everyone expects a tip? how? She give him back $8 and left the other $2, but if she took the full amount and kept $2 I could see the tip accusation. God you can be such a jewish-banker sometimes!

F(ck you.

Yes, I was making an assumption about Flint, because most of the people in flint can't add 2+2.

As for the tip comment, I was just F'n around. Everyone expects something for nothing today. I do remember someone trying to Jew me for a 12 bar that I paid $80 for. Hmm who was it that said...."I'll give ya $30 for it."

Try and hook you up with a damper and you try to jew me out of a 12 bar.

Course it was flint. Gas station on Corunna Rd.

I hear ya about the tip. Everyone has a damn "tip jar" nowadays. WTF. I might tip if I get great service at a sitdown restaraunt. If I don't have to wait for **** and my food is good. Other than that, f you if you expect me to give you money because you f'ed up your own life so much that you "depend on tips" to get extra money to buy cigarretes and an Earnhart plaque for your piece of **** trailer. I "depend on getting up at 4:30 everyday" and hauling my *** to work for 8 hrs. If I don't give a rats *** about the starving kids in Ethiopia you can be damn sure I don't give a rats *** about a fat waitress. And WTF is with a tip jar at a place that serves coffee to go??? Great, you rang up the register, filled a cup and handed it to me. F you Dunkin Donuts. maybe I should reach in there and take some of the tips next time. Be like "oh, I thought it was a perk for being a customer. I mean, it took more brain power for me to decide what I wanted than to make it, and I had to walk all the way inside here from my car so it was more physical too. You want a tip? Stop eating the free donuts, your getting fat."
