Discuss The world is doomed. in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

The last 10 bob note I used was a Saturday dinner time, me Mam sent me out for fish & chips 4 times and bring the change home. You'd need a fifty now to get any change.

You must be going to the wrong place... We had chippy tea on Friday. £16....
 
Popped into a McD's centre of Glasgow prob about 10-15 years ago. My and my brother -
Simple order
Me - two cheeseburgers two drinks to go, please
Employee - Tills are down sir
Me - Oh dear but I see you have piles of hot steaming food over there behind you...in fact some of the staff are eating and drinking some of the "goodies" cant I just get what I ordered and I will pay and leave
Employee - Tills are down sir
Me - Do you want me to work out the total cost for you as the tills are down
Employee - Tills are down sir
Me - Look I have counted out the exact cash just gimmie the food and drink and you can shove this in the till when it becomes unbroken
Employee - Tills are down sir
Me - Can I have a quick chat with a manager ...............The manager appears from out of thin air
Manager -Tills are down sir.....
Me- But, But, But
I eventually turn to brother and say oh look KFC just across the road so we can still eat some horrid food and drink our year's supply of sugar in 5 mins flat....Off we went.
The whole thing was surreal, Not just the fact that they would not sell anything because of the tills being down but the fact that not one of them said any other word apart from parroting "Tills are down sir" this even included the manager apart from adding "it's company policy, sir".
 
You should of taken an Uzi.

Not always the employees fault. I bet someone questioned it and the manager came out with your last sentence.... Sometimes it's not worth the hassle of discussing things with a thick manager...
