Verizon Customer Service Reps Can’t Do 1st Grade Math

0.002 cents = 0.002 dollars

AND

100 cents = 1 dollar

Makes perfect sense to me. And math is just opinion anyway. This is simple system of units people.

I thought the manager would come over sort everything out, and maybe we would hear lay some Christian Bale style smackdown on the rep, but then BAM, I’m hit with the harsh reality that is the American education system.* Ok, I almost never badmouth America, but let’s just say I’m extremely disappointed at the education system.

*Note: I’m not sure that these Verizon customer service reps are American, but there is a strong chance that they are.

Please teach your children that math is still important. At the very least, do it so they don’t get embarrassed like this.

  1. Wow, it is true we are raising dumbies. Perhaps they can fix the economy with their math wizardry. Hope, you were able to find a person who could truly do the math.
