MONKMAN Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Not a c**t, but in fact a sound c**t on the train. On attempting to purchase a snack and drink on the Aberdeen to Glasgow train about an hour ago, I was informed the card machine was not working and they had no change so couldn’t accept my note. The complete stranger sitting opposite offered to pay for my goods to the value of £3. I politely declined and managed to purchase them further down the journey when informed the machine was in fact working again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I was having my nap on the train yesterday when a lightly supervised hyperactive 3 year old stood beside me repeatedly shouting "wake up!" I did, and couldn't get back to sleep. Wee c**t on a train. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop all these kids coming out without a pound to their name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say if you watch a decent barmaid take cash and get change it can't be any quicker/slower than paying by card. I might move to thinking card is acceptable if you're buying a lot of drinks but don't pretend you're not a tosser for paying for 1 drink by card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speed of a cash or card transaction doesn't change just because you're getting more or less drinks. A contactless transaction is always going to be faster in any circumstance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's crap A regular like me knows the price and can hand over the exact money because I'm a big boy who went into the pub with cash. Also if the drinks come to say £10 or £20 then cash will be a lot quicker than the barman getting the machine and punching in all the necessary details. So you away and return with a sensible post please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See this time consuming "punching in the details into the machine", what do you think the barstaff do with the cash you give them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your card world the barman punches drinks into the till for the bill and then the same into the card machine. In mine they do it once into a till ETA are you trying to tell me youths pay by card at the bar to speed up the staff rather than because they're too fucking lazy to grab cash from 1 of the thousands of ATMs they passed earlier?

Easily quicker than pissing about with money. There was a Topic which was vaguely ‘c***s in a Pub’. I recall people in that thread getting annoyed about people paying by card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they only punch it in once. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
