Delivery total was $8.39.
Old lady gives me a $20.
Asks for $12 back. So that I can have a nice tip, y’know, “for driving so far.”
See the problem?
I tried explaining basic math to her. Y’know. That if her total was $8.39, and she wanted twelve back from the twenty she gave me, I was going to not only be stiffed, but actually be shorted thirty-nine cents. Apparently, either because she’s old or because she’s stupid, my thriller math skills bounced off of her and went nowhere. And because she was an old lady, I didn’t press the point. Forty-cents. Big whoop.
Woulda been nice to have gotten a tip, though.
