Today's Question(s):
When you use cash to pay for something do you count the change to make sure it is correct ? Yes, sure do. It does seem as if most cashiers do not know how to make change. If the computerized cash register didn't show the amount, I seriously doubt that they would get it right.
If so, do you: Count your change right at the register ? Most always.

Check it when you get back to the car ?
Bonus Question: ou know it is cold when I drag out Gloves.

Extra Credit Question: For those with microwaves Is it On the counter ?Over your stove ?
Some place else ?
[u]Just for Fun:
[/UAre there any special/favorite foods you make/eat now that the weather is getting cooler ? Venison Chili, casseroles. stews, soups.



Today in History:
1885 - Baseball sets all players salaries at $1,000-$2,000 for 1885 season
1888 - The first issue of "National Geographic Magazine" was on newsstands this day......I think I might have some of these...
1961 - NY Museum of Modern Art hangs Henri Matisse's "Le Bateau" upside-down It wasn't corrected until December 3rd - oops !
1967 - "Hair" premieres on Broadway - “Gimme a head with hair. Long, beautiful hair...”
1972 - Chuck Berry's "My Ding-a-ling," is #1
Word of the Day:
innocuous \ih-NOK-yoo-uhs\ , adjective:
1. Harmless; producing no ill effect.
2. Not likely to offend or provoke; as, "an innocuous remark." Many of them around here I hope...

Angry Change at check out.

My BIG petpeev is the cashier putting the bills in my hand and change on top even whem it is obvious that my other hand if holding to an infant or something else. This forces me to wade the money up and stick it in my purse or pocked.
The proper way is change first and then bills. It is much easier to handle that way. I have questioned some cashier who said that they were told to do it the bills first way.
When a cashier does it correctly I always praise them for it and they love the acknowledgement.
