The other day the credit card machine was bunk at our local coffee shop- I had no cash so the owner (who I am friendly with) just asked that I pay her next time.
Well the next time I came in she wasn't there- it was her new/only employee. I asked this person to charge me double for my coffee and explained the situation. I recieved a blank expression, no acknowledgement of what I was talking about and still paid double.
So then the next time I go in it's the owner working and I feel the need to clarify the situation.
"Hey, just so you know, I was in on Tuesday and your new girl was here and I told her to charge me double from that day your credit card machine was broken."
"Oh don't even worry about it, it's all a wash, I just figure everything evens out in the end."
Now, Larry David would've said, "I don't think you heard me, I paid you and we are even, I don't owe you anything."
Me? I just stood there, stunned by the stupidness of the situation.
