OT: NSA story keeps getting bigger...

[Nathan England]

Ironically, I went to the post office this morning to mail a package and the mail lady took my 
cash and counted it back to me correctly! I was shocked and had to comment on this very 
discussion. Seems there are still a few people who know how to handle money!

What I find frustrating is the number of people in retail who can't identify American money.  A 
couple of days ago I went to a Burger King and paid with some dollar coins and a half dollar.  
The girl took them, looked and went to the back presumably to ask what they were or if she 
could accept them.  Today I went to another place and the guy asked me what the half dollars 
were.  I told him they're half dollars.  It says so on the back.  Am I unreasonable for thinking 
people who deal with and accept money from customers should know what that money looks 
like?
