Me: “Hi, your order comes to $***.”

Customer: “Is it okay if I pay on my credit card even though it’s under $10?”

Me: “Sure. May I please have your card?”

Customer: “Oh, do I actually have to swipe it? Your machines inside don’t need swiping. I just wave my card in my purse and it works.”

Me: “None of our machines do that, sorry.”

Customer: “I just hold up my purse and wave it around and it works!” *she begins waving purse, at least half a metre from the Eftpos machine*

Me: “No, ma’am. It won’t, I’m afraid.”

Customer: “Oh alright, here’s my card. You really should fix your machines, you know!”
