I totally LOL'ed when he lost it
I agree it's better that handing your card to an employee who disappears in the back for awhile then returns with it. I don't want to lose possession of it, like in Europe where they bring the machine to you, but whats with all the pointless questions?? The restaurants machine doesn't ask all this junk, why does the grocery store? If I wanted to be a checker in a store, Id get that job!
Join a discount club? If I'm interested, I'll ASK you. If it involves me carrying another card around...NO.
Confirm amount? What lawyer fought that in court? "Well, you honor...My client didn't pay attention when the cashier had it on the register, and then didn't listen when they were TOLD by the cashier with their MOUTH what the total was, so we need another button."
Donate to homeless hungry manatees with cancer? If I want to be guilted into something, I'd go visit my mom. No thank you...
Debit or credit? What difference does it make to ME?? Can't the electronics be smart enough to either know the difference, or know your preference?
Cash back? You need to tell the zombie cashier anyway. So tell them! No button needed.
Confirm signature? Like I'm supposed to believe that NSA satellites are hooking up and actually verifying my signature when all I really did was draw a penis.
The chip thing in America is silly. No businesses are prepared for it here. I'm so happy when I get to use the chip reader because I get to hang out even longer and wait for it to work. But at least we get to listen to a buzzer now that reminds the sheeple to take it out of the machine! Longer wait, and more noise, how American! All that for already outdated security tech:down:
Don't get me riled up about the TSA neither:upset:
