homeschoolmom Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Yikes. That is scary. Now my kids understand fully why I make them label their math problems-- every time without fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillT Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 One of the scariest fails ever. Scary because math illiteracy is going to kill people. I really don't want to be under a nurse's care who thinks that math is just a matter of opinion. No offense to anyone who has worked such a job, but that's probably why she's working in a Verizon call center and not as a nurse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never worked such a job, but I'm pretty confident that "leaving the script" is not really allowed. No thinking, please! You'll notice that both agents keep going back the script: "If you take 0.002 times...." without really being able or allowed to *listen* to what the guy is saying. But I'm not sure that they would have gotten it anyway. When she said she saw the difference between a dollar and a cent and a half dollar and a half cent, but then couldn't follow with the difference between $0.002 and 0.002c... I died a little in that moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcePrincessKRS Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 That's kind of a win. I mean, half the roof cleaned off in 2 seconds and he landed on his feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Bombay Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Why would anyone feel it necessary to shovel snow off a roof anyway? If you live in a climate that gets snow, your roof should be able to support the weight of a heavy snowfall. Coals to Newcastle is what it is.
