A few years ago I went into a KFC and bought a small snack that cost $3.85. I gave the teenage girl at the counter who served me a $5 note. She typed in to the register that I had given her $50. She then handed over $46.15 in change to me. I said that I handed over $5 and that you can't give me $46.15 in change. The girl couldn't understand the logic. I went down the path of "you're handing me back more money that what I gave you..." She was still confused. I was tempted to accept the change and run but I had my impressionable primary school aged kids with me and had always imparted the principles of honesty on them. But honesty was losing the battle against stupidity in this case ! Eventually I persuaded her to call over her manager - explained that I can't get $46 change when handing over a $5 note and eventually honesty and logic won the battle !
I went into a sprints one day with a $50 note and asked the dude if he could change it for two 20's and a 10, he declined and told me I had to buy something for him to do it.
They had a drinks fridge there and there was an 80c water so I got that and had the shits on as I handed him the $50 note, the dumb f*** gave me the fifty back plus my $49.20 change, I thanked him and then walked briskly to my car and took off like a shower of shit.
