Tales Of The Mathematically Challenged
The very worst thing in the world happened today. My corporate office took this away from me. Sure, it’s not a big deal to those of you who can, I don’t know, add and/or subtract, but for people like me who add 2 and 2 and come up with a fraction, this is a disaster. Oh, the humanity.

See, I knew I liked YOU. My math skills are horrible – even adding up the points in Scrabble or Dominos can be difficult.

Can’t you use the calculator on your PC? That’s what I use. I had an accounting job several years ago and since then, I cannot do simple math in my head.
I remember seeing a keyboard once that even had “paper” up by the number pad. So it was like an adding machine/keyboard in one.

Sadly, Michelle, this little contraption actually weighed the money for me, therefore negating any necessity for counting or an adding machine. If I had to do it all by hand, then the world really would come to screeching halt.
