Can’t Even Handle Five Dollars, Let Alone A Million
(A customer walks up to the counter.)
Me: “Hi, how are you?”
(The customer gives me a smile.)
Me: “Can I help you?”
(The customer puts a dollar bill on the counter, puts a bunch of coins on top of it, and slides it towards me.)
Me: “Can I help you?”
(The customer slides the money closer to me.)
Me: “What is it you want me to do with this?”
(The guy gives me a blank stare.)
Customer: “I want a five dollar bill for that.”
Me: “Oh, okay.”
(I open the drawer, count his change, and give him a five dollar bill. He slides the bill back to me and stares again.)
Me: “Yes?”
Customer: “Can I buy five dollars of lottery with this?”
Me: “Oh, sure. You have to say that, though.”
Customer: “You couldn’t tell?”
Me: “No.”
(The guy gives me a blank stare.)
Me: “You could have paid with the change, too.”
Customer: “But I needed five dollars for lottery.”
Me: “The coin came to five dollars, though.”
Customer: “I guess it did.”
(I slide him the lottery ticket.)
Me: “Can I help you with anything else?”
(The customer walks away.)
