I used to manage a supermarket. A customer once brought a multi pack of (5) apples to the till. The member of staff pressed 5x then scanned the pack therefore charging £5 for a pack of apples...
I sacked them.
BTW, I'm 25, so not all young people are stupid.

My law would be that all school children, sod Maths, Languages and whatever else kids learn today; kids should learn the basics of cooking, washing, cleaning and money management. You "fail" high school without passing this ... because you will fail in life otherwise. And sod Maths, Languages and so on ... you learn more about angles playing pool, more about fast subtraction playing darts and more about language by walking down any inner city high street than you would in school.
