Also, off topic, but this is a story that I will carry to my death - I was at a gas station, and bill came out to $5.10...so I give cashier $10, and a dime. She looks at me and goes "uh, you don't need to give me that dime". I'm like wtf, it's so you can just give me a $5 bill back, instead of counting $4.90 in change. And she's adamant that she can't take the dime, I'm 'paying extra'. I try one more time before giving up and taking the $4.90 in change.

In hindsight I should have taken the $4.90, added my dime, and asked for a $5 bill.

People under-30 have no fucking idea how to count change or do math in their heads - you may has well given her a severed sheep's head. This coupled with the amount of Immigrants/Internationals working in service only since the Pandemic started I don't even bother with coins anymore. Tried giving a random cashier downtown $1.35 including dimes and nickels I swear they told me they never seen these things before.
