You work in a cold beer store. You have great hair and nice firm breasts in the B cup range. You have a smile that can cure impotence.
A customer buys something that costs $10.10 and he gives you a $20 bill (as you catch him checking out your chest). You ring it in to the till and are told by the magic fairy in the machine that the change is $9.90. Then the jerk says he has a dime, and he hands it to you. As he does his fingers brush your palm and you can instantly feel the power and virility of this magnificent man. You unconsciously purr slightly, but it magically comes out sounding like "muurrrrr". You can't help but close your eyes and whimper slightly as you feel your panties moisten. *ahem* Anyway. What do you do? The machine already did the math for you, and now you have this extra money in your hand. You know that it probably means the stud doesn't want a pocket full of change. But what does he get? The red one? They blue one? Could YOU perform this great mathematical feat?! Can you add a dime to $9.90 in your head?? Because this slim silky-smooth looking, firm breasted honey couldn't. She had to ask me how much change I should get now. Pretty sad. But man did she have a pair. |

The answer has always been 42. Thank you for providing the question.

I've done the same thing too. Eventually when working cash somewhere you get in the zone and things like that throw you off :P

I've seen that happen so many times it not even funny. How about being able to add one cent to 99 cents? You'd think a person with no primary education would know how to do that. But no... that would be asking for way too much. Nice story by the way.

I'm sorry, you lost me at nice hair and firm breasts in the B range with the emphasis on a cold beer store.

It wasn't a fairy in the machine, it was a leprechaun.
Everyone knows leprechauns are conniving greedy bastards who hoard their change. The only correct answer would have been to keep the dime in exchange for a nude yoga session. Man, you're losing your touch. All those who believe in telekinesis, raise my hand. |

Clearly the answer is the circumference of the breasts divided by two, followed by $9.80 being subtracted.

I think it is ten dollars... about the same amount Math for Dummies goes for.

I like those "Beer stores" that the LCBO runs in Ontario, Canada. They're nifty.

The other problem is because these places are cold, the fair lasses usually tend to be wearing winter jackets or at least fleece pullovers even in the summer. So it's often hard to gauge the cup size of the fair lass running the cash register. More often than not it's a guy running the cash machine. This is the problem with calculators. Nobody bothers to teach you proper arithmetic so you can do it in your head anymore. *sigh* |

It gets all muddly in her brain. The issue with math education these days isn't the wrote 'rithmetic; It's the *concepts* that the kids are missing out on. Even if she had been toting a calculator with her, it wouldn't have helped. |

You've answered the question yourself Murbot.
It's an easy question, unless you're breathing in Murbot's Manly Musk, which of course liquidises all female brains. |

What's a dime? Is it ten cents?
Also, exactly how cold was the beer and was the shop-girl facing east or west. Give me these facts and I will solve your problem. "Tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms further" - The Great Gatsby |

Aw, quit raggin' on the chick and give her break.
Just the other day I was struggling with Fourier series. It's hard enough already to add ten cents! |

When I used to work in a shop we would occasionally get conmen coming in, they would pay for a cheap item with a £20 note then distract the cashier by asking the time as they were handed the change. They would then quickly produce the correct money saying "If I give you this, you can give me the £20 note back." Leaving the conman with an extra £20 minus the cost of the item the purchased.
Of course they never conned me, but anyone working after a very late night with a huge hangover might have been caught out. |

Oh, Murbot, the poetry you write! It would even make Mallarmé jealous as shit! Women must be throwing themselves at your feet; all completely nonplussed and craving for more.
Exit the ever so boring 'Shall I Compare Thee To A Summer's Day?'. Enter Murbot: the enigma. You work in a cold beer store. You have great hair and nice firm breasts (in the B cup range). You work in a cold beer store. You have a smile, a smile that can cure impotence. You work in a cold beer store. Pretty sad. You had great hair, You had a smile, And, man, did you have a pair. |
