The funniest thing I saw was when a someone tendered a $100 note to a
ticket examiner for a $2.40 fare - he said "no problem", wrote out the
ticket, took the $100 note, then wrote out a receipt for $97.60, telling
them to go to their local station in the morning and submit an application
for refund - it would take about three weeks, he told them - they VERY
quickly found the correct money!
