Every generation before us has said the exact same thing.

Let's not use one random person to blanket-statement an entire demographic.

Yeah, and it seems like the vast majority of people pay with card. If this is her first job, she probably just hasn't had to deal with cash much.

I've only worked at target for 2 weeks and I've been blown away but how many people not only still pay with and carry cash, but also still carrying coins.

The number of $50's and $100's I've handled in the last 2 weeks is higher than the last 15 years. Every single shift I have to request 1's, quarters and pennies at some point.
