A hint for the selfish and/or those enjoying care in the community

If you are at the only non-express supermarket checkout open earlyish one morning, with a woman bearing a toddler and many groceries behind you, and another heavily laden woman behind her, and you purchase $192.90 worth of goods, it is BAD FORM to hand over a $100 note and $92.90 in gold coins.

Especially if the checkout girl gets flustered and keeps losing count while the toddler gets increasingly whiney.

But more especially if we've seen the $50 note you put back in your purse.

This is just in case you happen to be reading and wondering who the woman saying "Just give her the $50!" was.
