tonight i went to mcdonalds.
i got an oreo mcflurry.
it was splendid.
but that's not the point of this post.
i just wanted to dedicate this to mr. mcdonalds worker.
mr. mcdonalds worker: "your total is $3.03"
i hand him $5.03
he then continues to give me my receipt and walks away.
ummm... where are my 2 dollars?
of course i didn't want to be rude, so i patiently waited. then had to approach the always awkward... umm you're wrong approach. i then explained how i gave him a five dollar bill and still needed money. how this did not occur to him? i'm not too sure... because i'm pretty sure that single three dollar bills don't exist...
he then apologizes and hands me a 1 dollar bill and 97 cents...
do i care that mcdonalds technically stole 3 cents from me? no.
however, do i care that i now have to carry around a heavy 97 cents, rather than a light single one dollar bill? yes.
great math skills mr. mcdonalds worker. especially seeing how you have a machine that does the math for you. i wish you the best of luck in your future.
