Funny how? Like a clown funny? Do you think clowns are fun in the same way the american way of using the metric system is?

I once had to pay $5 and I gave the chick three one-dollar bills and a two-dollar bill. She counted it and said it wasn't enough. I laughed and told her to count it again. By the third or fourth count she finally figured it out.

I've been forced to talk to managers before to convince them a $2 bill is real. I know it isn't a very common note in circulation but still, damn.

I say, "I asked for three-quarters of a pound..."

And she says something like, "I know, but I don't know how much that is."

I almost said, "You have a scale right in front of you that tells you how much is on it," but then it dawned on me that she probably didn't know that the decimal form of "three-quarters" was ".75."

Then she put a little more on so that it read ".65" or something, and I didn't want to bother with her innumeracy anymore, so I left it at that and paid for the chicken...


I'd like to point out that your story has no adjectives with negative connotation. The closest you got was "innumeracy". Nice. LOL

A good measure of one's personality and disposition, surely. Kudos.

Sounds not too much chicken there. You should have bought 75 and not .75 pounds, like a 35-kilo chicken now thats a meal
