Math

For example my reading skills have been at college level since 3rd grade, comprehension and spelling have also been at college level since that age. My math skills however tested around 7th grade and never went much higher than that.
It's not that I didn't try and didn't go to class but it is because my mind doesn't comprehend that type of logic problem the same way it grasps abstract thought. does it mean I am dumb because I never got past pre-algebra? no not at all it just means that the field I should go into probably shouldn't be math intensive.
The funny thing is though that when I get into jobs that are math intensive I pick it up quickly because it is an applied science rather than nonsensical repetition with no purpose. Many times you earn what you need to because it is a form of function and has a reasoning behind it as opposed to mindless repetition

The only thing that bothers me is people who ask to break bills immediately after I close my drawer.
<- works in accounting/customer service/management at a grocery store

More times than not I've set down my bills while I sort out coins to make my change an even amount, the cashier just snaps up the cash and then gives me a shitty look when I hand them my coins, sometimes refusing them completely.

Drawers rarely come out even on their own. They should be even for the day/week, though. Whoever said that they have to call a manager to confirm the change is correct when it's different than what's on the register receipt, your company is retarded. Making people wait and think the employees are stupid is really bad for customer service and for employee morale.
OK so now I have to go mix chemicals (math) and figure out developing times (math again) and then figure out exposure times taking into account paper speed, aperture and timed exposure as well as developing time to get desired results.
Like I said if I have to apply it I can do complicated forms of math, but looking at it in the books means jack shit to me
