Arithmetic skills continue to degrade.Buying supper at local hamburger stand.Will their be anything else?Can I get a 0% discount?No.Why not?Silence ensued. After a few backs and fourths I finally got her to finish doing the checkout. I still don't think she understood that 0% was the same as no discount full price

@EarlThePearls I was in conversation with one of our Software team leaders, and he couldn't even do simple math in his head.I'm sure he could do incredibly complex math on the computer, but mental math isn't something we teach these days.

@EarlThePearls i bet if they keyed in $40 as cash given then you whip out a dime, they'd probably continue with giving you 3 one dollar bills, a dime, a nickle and the original dime you gave 'em. tough to by a gumball for the kiddo with three small coins

@EarlThePearls and 11 times out of 10 you'd get 1 five, 4 ones and the original one you gave her lol.btw that exact thing happens to me every time :( almost seems like the declining education is by design.
