I worked at McDs during the 1/3 Angus burger and... yes. It happened, more times than I'd like. I tried convincing a couple people, then after that who cared. I was getting $8/hr. Fuck it it's a worse deal and you get a smaller burger but you do you genius.

    I used to work in a deli. Our scales gave weights in decimals, people always ordered in fractions. One day someone asked for an eighth of a pound. My coworker asks me "Is that .8?" I politely told her "it's .125, so it needs to say about .13." I guess part of it was panic, maybe if she had thought about it for a second she would have gotten it, but to think it's more than a half pound was crazy. People ask for a half pound all the time.
