first time i went to new york, a few years back, me and my friends decided we needed a slice of new york pizza. we found a nice place not far off times square, and i ordered two slices of sicilian. i paid the man at the register with a new $10 bil (they had just came out), he gave me my change, and i ate my pizza. i have a bad habit of just shoving the cash in my pocket and not actually walleting it til later, so when i finally found that he had seen the 10 and assumed it was one of the new 20's, i realized i got paid to eat his pizza. honestly, i was strapped enough for cash as it was back then, so it didn't bother me all that much.
i'd like to think i'm much better than that now, but the truth is, we're tight on cash, and if i'm gonna receive a windfall because someone else had a lapse of attention/intelligence, be it 10 bucks or 100, i'm gonna roll with it.
