Is this real money? I’ve never seen bills so low before. Does money really come in ones?

Student- “So… I give you the money, and you’ll turn it around for me???”
Rauner- “Yep. Trust me. Nuthin’ to worry about. By the way, what out-of-state school did you pick?”

So if I pay you now, I can choose who wears the jacket later, right?

Now that you know how to run a cash register, you have all the education and training you need for a life time career at the burger joint of your choice. So drop out and get a job, become a useful member of society rather than suffer under the crushing student debt that you will have if you decide to go to college.
Comment by Huh? Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:42 am
That cash will end up in my bank anyway. I own ten banks you know.
Comment by Magic carpet ride Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:43 am
Don’t forget my receipt. Someday the state will have a budget and I’ll want to get this $3 back.

Hmmm… Orange really isn’t my color, but it kind of goes with the Governor Office in Illinois…

I don’t tip because society says I have to. All right, if someone deserves a tip, if they really put forth an effort, I’ll give them something a little something extra. But this tipping automatically, it’s for the birds. As far as I’m concerned, they’re just doing their job.

On a semi-related note - there is a group of protesters outside the 4th street gate to the Governor’s mansion.

This should help you buy your way into a top Chicago prep school. Don’t worry about paying me back. I get royalties from the book you have to buy on the subject of “buying your way in.”
