I did not do this in class because the teachers had a paddle. I was also told if I got in trouble in school, I was in trouble at home.
There were kids that didn't seem to mind that paddle so footballs did fly.
I know it made the teachers crazy mad.
The Walmart nearest me still has some human cashiers. The line is always longer here. Not as many use the self check outs. I do not as I feel like they take someone's job.
They still take personal checks here.
I guess I'm still old school. I pay for almost everything by check. Gas, groceries, bills almost everything. Small town makes that easier. Occasionally I shop out of town, I use cash. I do use my debit card at the ATM.
I suppose I am a dinosaur.
I once had a job keeping such paper ledgers. Was an easy job, I knew almost everyone in my small town.
When they tried to promote me to collections, I put in my notice. I did not want to do that so I found a new job as fast as I could.
Now everyone wants to work M-F, 9-5. There are not many mechanics working on tractors, cars, etc until the job is done. 5pm they go home.
Warranties for repairs have really went down hill. I had a covered washing machine repair needed. Took 2 weeks to get it done. Ridiculous.
