An early sign of aging?

Hi,

Ouch for the Clerk...he will come up short on his count at the end of his shift...by $0.34 :blush:

Unless...he keys in $6.16 & the register will show the amount of Change to be given, I think that is what they do in the Supermarkets, hmmm not sure ?

His drawer was balanced for my sale. The register rang up the total as $5.66. I paid $6.16, and eventually got 2 quarters back. He entered $6.00 as the I amount I paid him, and the register showed to give back $.34. It's not necessary for the clerk to be able to calculate the change they owe a customer on a computerized register, but he still must be able to count the change. ;) I assume that this guy can figure out that a dime, nickel, and penny adds to 16 cents. He apparently just did not grasp the concept of why I would give him change when the $6 would already cover it.
