They Don't Make Teachers Like They Used To

I had an interesting exchange at work last week. I had a customer who made it a point several times to let me know she was a school teacher. I think she was trying to get a discount. Good luck with that. Have you met my boss?

Anyway, she comes in one afternoon and buys a few things that total up to $3.88. She hands me 4 $1 bills and a $5 bill. She says she needs 5 $1 bills for change.

I told her to keep the 4 $1 bills and give me the $5. She got a very cross look on her face and said "I want 5 $1 bills!"

OK, math whizzes. Figure it out...

She obviously was never a student of Mr. Singleton or Coach Turner, yet she has a Teaching Certificate and I'm the dumbass redneck.
