Bought some sweat pants , the change part was 60 cents, gave the cashier 2 quarters and 2 nickels, she examined every one as if she never saw coins before, found it very amusing.
Gen Z and coins
- Thread starter unassuming
- Start date
They'd never know how to figure out the proper change on a cash transaction if the cash register didn't give them the amount.
Not so sure about that. I assume that subtraction is still taught in school. If so, I'm interested to hear how it is not mostly their fault.
With technology now, it is no wonder.
They subtraction in grade one and by grade 5 they are onto calculators and that is it.
Calculators should be banned in schools. Period. But everyone wants to do what is easy and that is what they are taught. Kids will do what they are taught.
My bratling is a millennial and I remember fighting against being forced to provided them with a calculator for school. I can just imagine it now for Gen Alpha and Gen Z
The question is how did she get the job?
Knew somebody?
Experience - for example knows Math?!!!!
Lied on her resume.
I blame Social Media for not teaching her valuable skills in Life.

Anyone still carry cash like me? another reason to do so is if debit and credit systems crash.
I always have at least $200 in my wallet at all times.
I carry my wallet in my back right pocket, when I'm walking through crowded areas,, I hook my right thumb in that pocket to protect against pick pockets.
