    if the bill is say 19.75, give her/he/it a 20 dollar bill and 75 cents,,, try it

    most of the time I get pissed at the schools for what they have done to the kids today. I get my grandson for 2 weeks every summer. in that time I try to cram as much into his head as possible. NO tv. NO phone. read books and I ask him questions about what he reads too afterwards. and shop work in the basement
    before the range or swimming.

    • I’ve done the change thing. Mostly I get a baffling look, especially if it’s an odd number of cents, until they plug the numbers into the computer cash register and it spits out $1.00.

    If you don’t know who Vann was, be advised that the internet is on computers nowadays, so you can lookit up your own self. Or, if you can read, yet another disparaged skillset in mud-urn America, pick up a copy of A Bright Shining Lie by Neil Sheehan and prepare to be enlightened.

  4. In my 68 years I’ve needed almost every tradesman in the business at one time or another. I’ve never needed a social media influencer or a Hollywood celeb though.

  5. Without Network Technicians and engineers, as well as line techs, three out of the four that ‘people’ look up to don’t exist.
