At least anyone having trouble getting that to work in my line doesn't have to feel bad about keeping people waiting as the wait for the receipt to print will always be longer and there's nothing any of us can do about it
Buckle up, kids! Daddy's puttin' the hammer down.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Co-signed on all of that up there.
In dentist chair waiting for a couple of small fillings. I'm holding off on the crown replacement for now. My wallet hurts too much, even with dental "insurance." Just need to breathe for a couple of months.
Also just got an estimate for cosmetic work on my pre-molar to pre-molar up-top teeth, and it was way more reasonable than I was expecting. Still need to budget it out, but... I think it'll be doable.

Good luck with dentistry!
Agree they need to standardize where to tap for tap to pay.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Going to have computer maintence done today--that ought to turn my frown upside down. As if. Count me in on the whole tapping thing, even if I'm not usually the one that does it.(Also, touchscreens really aren't easier for EVERYONE--ask me how. Sometimes I could kill Steve Jobs again for sticking me with that without an alternate. Even if he is the only tech overlord I'd have a smoothie with. Kind of ripped some guy for being all "Well, actually, there is a lot of healthcare fraud," but, since he was a stranger, I held off on the "Regulating The Poor" monologue. This time.(it won't be fully sad if I lose track of Facebook, which was, like almost everything in my adult life, supposed to be fun and ended up "demented and sad, but social."
