Trust me.  I've seen it and I've lived it.  I used to have to teach these
kids to make change.  I'd say, "Can you count from one to a hundred?"
*YUP!*  "Then you can make change."  Many still didn't get it..
sigh..........  "A customer owes 30 bucks and they give you 2 twenties..
How much do you owe them back?" I'd say.    "I dunno......" would be the
answer.  "You can't count from 30 to 40?"  I don't really fault the schools,
a lot of it has to do with experience.  If you never needed it, you don't
have it.  Brain cells that is.....

Obviously you've never seen a cash register worker count change when the
machine is broken.

Longest 10 minutes of my life.  I just tipped them the $2 and change.
