Default You know there is a worker shortage when...

I know there are a lot of jobs, and that people are just hiring anyone, but seriously, couldn't employers check for brain activity first?!

My trip to the gas station

me: "Hi I'd like to pay for my gas please"
cashier: "I'm sorry our debit machine is down, but you can get cash from inside XXX with your debit card"
me: "okay"
cashier "but you need to leave your debit card here for collateral"
me: "but I need my debit card to take out money."
cashier: blank stare
me: "Can I give you my keys as collateral"
cashier "but you might drive way without paying for your gas"
me: rolling my eyes "you have my car keys though, I can't drive away."
cashier: "but you may have another key"
me: looks at my phone for the time, "how about I just pay with cash
cashier: "but our debit machine is down"
me: Just gives the cashier the cash...

I just want to shake some people and ask if anyone is home!
