Still Hoping It Will Just Be An iFad
(While on a trip with my mom and cousin, I go into a secondhand shop in my former hometown. When I still lived near the store, I knew that they only accepted cash, so I am happy to see a sign stating that they now accept credit cards. There is only one employee in the store, an older man. I pick out a few items and take them to the register, but as soon as I take out my card…)
Employee: “Sorry, I can’t take that. I can only take cash.”
Me: “But your sign says…”
Employee: “I know. If my daughter were here she could help, but I dunno how to run this thing.” *he points to an iPad with a card reader plugged into it*
Me: “That’s easy. I can show you, since I don’t have any cash on me.”
Employee: “Naw, I’m never gonna figure it out.”
(I had to go back out to the car and ask my cousin to lend me some money.)
