A Minimum Understanding On Minimum Wage
Me: “Thank you for calling [Store]. How may I help you today?”
Customer: “Do you guys cash payroll checks?”
Me: “Sometimes; it depends. May I ask how much it is?”
Customer: “Two hundred and sixty.”
Me: “Well, that’s actually more than we’re allowed to cash in this store. I’m sorry, but we can’t.”
Customer: “What? No? You can’t? How much is your limit?”
Me: “Nope. We can’t. Our limit is about two hundred dollars, even.”
Customer: *angrily* “That’s ridiculous! Who only makes two hundred dollars on a paycheck?! Nobody gets paid that little! Who would only get that? This is stupid!”
Me: “Honestly, sir, a lot of the people in this store only make about two hundred dollars.”
Customer: *goes quiet for a minute, then sounds very sad when he starts talking again* “I am so… Oh, my God. I’m sorry. I didn’t know. Oh, my God.” *click*
