I know we've all seen the credit card commercials that portray plastic as the fast, easy means of paying for things. The perfectly synchronized fast-food customers succeed one other in a flawlessly flowing line, each swiping their credit card and then getting on with their merry way. Well today I was in Noize Music buying cigarettes and sparked up a conversation with the clerk. He commented on how time-consuming it was for him to run credit cards, saying that one morning he spent half an hour simply selling cigarettes as a constant line snaked to the door, slowed down swiping cards and waiting for receipts to print.
