<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Circus, post: 1708166, member: 51195&quot;]All of the cashiers in my post Were born stateside and no older than mid twenties, other than all being female. They were of assorted heritages, the local Home Despot never seems to have males working the registers. If any body watches the new whether it is local or cable news channels. You will notice that the only two important things that they sart off leading the news casts are SPORTS and ENTERTAINMENT. Unless there is blood and gore or what ever cause the news station is championing this week.</p><p>Having worked for 33 years in an large urban based educational system, I have watched the steady decline of the education that are given children in this country. Were again sports and the entertainment industry are more important than reading writing and basic ability to do anything else.</p><p>As with everything else there are good, bad and great teachers. But going against the establishment is futile!</p><p><br /></p><p>Being outside of Detroit, I can add to the attendant at a coin/bill machine. He might be there to keep somebody from ripping off the money and machine, then trying to sell the machine for scrap! had somebody try that with a couple ATM&#039;s they stole and broke open a couple years ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>When the exchange rates were in the US favor a number of years ago. the gas stations/party stores mostly owned by non U.S. Natives. would go across the US/Canadian border with a couple thousand dollars to exchange it for the Canadian coinage. This is when it was $125.00CD for $100.00 USD.</p><p><br /></p><p>They would slip one or two coins in change on each transactions. Of course prominently displayed at their registrars were sign stating NO Canadian coins ACCEPTED! It got so bad that some of the Banks in Windsor wanted ID and wouldn&#039;t give large amounts of coinage to people from Detroit/Michigan.</p><p>People will work any angle to increase the bottom line.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
