I broke down today and went to Mega-Gigantic Big Box Store to buy some unmentionables
and I heard the cashier say to the guy ahead of me, "I'm sorry, we don't have that." He was holding a debit card and I thought she meant they had no debit
-- and all I had was a debit card, so I thought I'd better ask before she started ringing my stuff up.
No, what she meant was they don't have the 'tap' function. I don't care; my new debit card can use 'tap' but I'm so used to "Insert card and type in Secret Squirrel Number" that I never use the tap.
Apparently, however, the customer ahead of me didn't think the same. The cashier said he sounded almost offended that they didn't have tap (his body language did suggest that, from my vantage point).
There was a tiny shop in My Former City of Residence that took ONLY CASH. I'm trying to imagine this guy in that place.
