How do you know the math is the problem? Some stores I have worked in have till systems and computer systems so complicated for doing things like refunds and discounts that if you haven't done one for a while, then you forget how to do them.
As someone who works at a register from time to time, at the end of my usual 10 hour shifts, I get customers who want to split the cost 3-6 ways on average for decent sums of money. I always ask if they can just work it out on their phone because I'm quite tired. I'm also not the best at math, but I usually am okay with stuff like that. Never had a person have an issue with me asking.
Exactly. If it was the math, why not help the person instead of just being lazy about it. Clearly if someone is having trouble and you can help them with something you consider as simple as math, then why not help instead of just waiting for 20 minutes.NiPah said:You waited around 20 minutes for them to take off a coupon? Hell I'm not sure you should be complaining about others doing poor at math.
