I remember the days when there weren’t any cash registers to tell you how much change to give back.

Yep. My first job at 16. KFC. We had to count out the change ourselves. And guess what? It wasn’t difficult.

We all had part time jobs as teenagers; it was just a given. Nobody made us. We wanted to earn our gas money, money for albums, movies, concert tickets, etc. and stick a couple of bucks away each week.

My next part-time job in my college days was at a department store. And we had those new-fangled registers that told us how much change to give back. LOL

LOL, the only math I learned as a kid was to break a twenty, and like a champ!

At the fast food places they don’t have numbers on the buttons of the registers. They have pictures of the products.
