very few people these days can count back change.  I have stumped more than one teenager by making them count it back to me.. they cant do it.

Goodness!!!!

I learned math in the 1970's... fortunately by old nuns who learned in the 30's or 40's. 

When I was 16, I worked at McDonalds.  for some reason we has several brown-outs that summer.... I was the only one who could keep working... even without a pad and paper....

Nowadays, they'll just close up shop!
