On my way home from work, I stopped at Taco Bell for a
quick bite to eat. In my billfold are a $50 bill and a $2
bill. I figure that with a $2 bill, I can get something
to eat and not have to worry about anyone getting irritated at
me for trying to break a $50 bill.
Me: "Hi, I'd like one seven-layer
burrito please, to go."
Server: "That'll be $1.04. Eat
in?"
Me: "No, it's to go." At this point, I open my billfold and
hand him the $2 bill. He looks at it kind of
funny.
Server:
"Uh, hang on a sec, I'll be right back."
He
goes to talk to his manager, who is still within my
earshot. The following conversation occurs between the
two of them:
Server: "Hey, you ever see a $2
bill?"
Manager: "No. A what?"
Server: "A $2 bill. This guy just gave it to
me."
Manager: "Ask for something else. There's no such thing as a $2
bill."
Server:
"Yeah, thought so."
He comes back to me and says,
"We don't take these Do you have anything
else?"
