I used to remember numbers also. But it’s been a long time since I have a need to. I respectfully disagree with your comment that kids can add cashier’s change today. When the cash register is down, they have to resort to a cell phone’s calculator. The math knowledge of today’s kids is poor to say the least, not all, but way too many.
I know what you’re saying. But after a week or so they catch on
Our computer system went down for a week we had to use paper like we did in the old days and we had to talk to each other.
It was brutal but we got better as we went along
“disagree with your comment that kids can add cashier’s change today.”
That’s true. About 10 years ago i was at a fast food joint and the computers went down just as I was getting ready to pay. The kid at the register didn’t miss a beat, and counted back the change. All the others were standing there like dolts
I asked, “Home schooled?”
Him: “Yes.”
