I’m confused.

Pizza & salad deal = $3.20

$2.60 (pizza) + $1.20 (expensive salad) = $3.80

$2.60 (pizza) + $1.50 (magic charge) = $4.10

Where did $4.50 come from?

And by the way …

But taking his word for it and charging $1.20 for the “expensive” lettuce, $2.60 (for pizza alone) + $1.20 (for bloody “expensive” lettuce) = $3.80

You repeated yourself. πŸ˜‰

Maths is confusing.

You know.. I don’t even know HOW he calculated it. Pulled numbers out of thin air or something. I’ve basically had the same meal before and paid $2.60(pizza) + 60c (salad). And this time it was the exact same thing but I paid $4.50 total. Gah.

My friend ate there today and had an even WORSE experience though, so I feel a bit consoled!

Hee. I should’ve known. Hated veggies my whole life.. probably ‘cos I KNEW they’d always do nasty things to me!

Isn’t there a channel to contact his superiors?

My friends would tell me to lay off, since its only a dollar, but I always think its the principle thats more important. Why should I keep mum when I’m being fleeced in broad daylight.

I didn’t complain about him but I asked the manager to clarify the prices.. and turns out I was right after all :X

And SO TRUE. A few cents is worth nothing.. but when someone’s job involves counting money and can’t count – well, I think that’s a problem :X

I didn’t then, ‘cos he seemed SO sure he was correct, so I backed off. But I asked the manager later and I was right after all! ahhhh!
