7:03 am
bichon

College de6s are worthless these days. Employers demand them and then offer ridiculously low salaries to people who have them.
9:44 am
MollyL
And the kids who get them end up spending years paying for them.
9:44 am
rururocks
I never finished .. and that is true about college loans
9:47 am
MollyL
There are kids who have rich Mommy and Daddy who pay for everything college, but there are more kids who don't.
9:47 am
rururocks
<---kid who didn't have rich mommy and daddy
9:48 am
MollyL
Oh, I forgot dedoyouwantpaperorplastic
9:48 am
rururocks
I loved the fries comment :D
9:49 am

However, there are not many grocery baggers anymore. Mostly you have to bag your own.
9:51 am
rururocks
I tried to pay for my college and work graveyard shifts but it was too hard to take enough classes and work for me
9:51 am
bichon
I always use the self check out
9:51 am
rururocks
I don't like to put my credit card number out there for self check out
9:53 am
MollyL
Your credit card or debit card number is fully available to anyone (the check out person) or anyone who can hack your grocery purchase. Using self-check out is not any more dangerous than any other purchase you make with a card.
9:53 am
bichon
You just stick it into the card reader. In my grocery store you have to do the same if you're going through a cashier
9:54 am
MollyL
Or a gas purchase, or an on-line purchase, etc.
9:54 am
rururocks
call me old fashioned I pay with cash at a grocery store
9:54 am
MollyL
You pay with cash? You must go to the bank a lot.
9:55 am
bichon
The only time I use cash is when I buy gas
9:56 am
mixi6
I've been using mostly cash. Hubby is pushing it.
9:57 am
MollyL
There are employees at my firm who still insist on a paycheck (not direct deposit) and cash their paychecks every week.
9:57 am
bichon
You could pay by check
9:57 am
mixi6
never carry check book.
9:58 am
MollyL
I still carry a check book (habit) but rarely use it.
9:59 am
bichon
I use my Delta Amex card. I get miles on Delta
9:59 am
MollyL
The truth in this "electronic money world" is that unless you deal only in cash and keep that cash under your mattress, you are open to internet assault.
10:00 am
bichon
How often does that happen?
10:01 am
mixi6
I can create a single use card for whatever amount and use that for on-line purchases.
10:02 am
rururocks
I don't have a debit card.. and won't use those.. too easily stolen
10:04 am
rururocks
call me old-fashioned.. I only worry about what's on top of the mattress :D
10:04 am
mixi6
I have a debit card, that I use at the ATM and called the bank and set the purchase limit to zero. Less likely to be stolen.
10:05 am
MollyL
Any electronic purchase can be hacked, whether it is debit or credit.
10:06 am
mixi6
yeah, but a debit card hits you bank account. The credit card doesn't put you out of pocket while you fight it.
10:07 am
rururocks
i hadnt' thought to set my debit/atm card at zero.. thanks mixi.. i will ask the bank to do that
10:09 am
MollyL
My bank monitors debit and credit card action. Most reputable banks do.
10:09 am
mixi6
I asked when they wouldn't issue an ATM only card.
10:10 am
rururocks
me too mixi.. they just don't do it
10:11 am
rururocks
i can't even look at facebook anymore.. is anyone else sick of looking at Zuckerberg's face all the time.. what a goober goofy looking guy he is
10:12 am
bichon
My bank emailed me when I was abroad to verify that I haad made ATM withdrawals
10:12 am
MollyL
I have never understood the appeal of Facebook. Never will.
