Things That Shit Me the Eighteenth

Im really not sure this is legal. If you pay with legal tender so to speak then they can't not accept it.

businesses don't have to accept cash

This is true but I am pretty sure if they don't accept cash payment they aren't allowed to chuck the card fees on top/or it has to be displayed in the price of the product or some shit like that.

Nah. They display the warning on their website and in the cinema as well.

Im not gonna argue it, but its annoying af. Sometimes I do want to pay cash. I wonder what happens when their computer system fails as well. Good luck with that.

Imagine the 15 yr old trying to add up 2.2% on the price

What if you walk out with a $10 product and leave$10 cash on counter. Is that stealing?

Probably. Because they dont do the banking etc, to process the cash.

Most likely yes we there'd be no record of the transaction - do you have a receipt or record of payment if you do that?

If a business doesn't accept cash, then they may not have the facilities to process cash transactions, cash storage etc

They would need to show proof of theft ie camera

That should show the leaving of cash

which they dont legally have to accept as payment

Good chance if their computer system goes down they can't do cash transactions either. Everything would be going back to a computer one way or another.

we couldnt get a parcel from the post office the other day because they'd put it in a 24/7 locker which was controlled by a computer system that was down

its great

I actually meant internet but ok..


System went kaput across the board late last year, cash was perfectly fine.

Going on a work tangent but I run my own race - have things setup how I like to do them (sticking with company guidelines overall but I've worked out short cuts that help me get things done faster).

I tend to power through the early part of the day. Purely so I can do a "victory lap" - meaning work slower as my main work is done. That said if I do get things done early, I'm usually setting up my work load for the following day - whether it's just laying out a schedule... or actually starting the next days work an hour or 2 before I leave.

I help out others where I can. But the favour is rarely returned.

When I go on leave I come back to work that needs to be caught up on. I miss the days where people's time off was covered. I'm currently on leave now (and posting on BF, woo hoo!!), essentially for the month.... I'll be welcomed back with a backlog of at least 3.5 weeks to catch up on. I'll be caught up (doing the older stuff concurrently with the current week) within 2-3 weeks. But it shouldn't happen at all. Out of 25 days that I had off last year, my workload was focused on for just 2 of them.




I'm going to gun for the title

What do you do for work?

I was meant to be going for dinner with some mates tonight so I obviously didn't plan anything for dinner. It got to 4:30 and the campaigners decided to postpone it until Friday next week.
