Do people think it's a good idea to pay their bus fare in ALL pennies?? Yes, I know pennies are legal tender. And yes, I know people are always looking for ways to get rid of the mounds of pennies they find in their sofa cushions. Hmmm, I'm starting to think the proposal to do away with the penny in Canada is a good one.... I digress.
First of all, it's quite the timewaster for us all to sit there while this ONE person holds up the line by dumping pennies into the farebox, 5 or 6 at a time. Even better are the ones that just take their little sandwich baggie full of pennies and dump the whole thing into the hopper at once. That results in an immediate jammed coin module. Now I've got to call for a supervisor to meet me at some point so he or she can repair it THUS causing further delays and THUS eating into my layover at the end of the line, THUS shortening the amount of time I can dick around on Facebook mobile.
Please, if you have pennies, be normal. Go to the Dollarama and buy a bag of those little penny roller thingies. Fill them up. Now take them to a band (a REAL bank, not Money Mart) and exchange them for a toonie. Thanks, you're a peach!
