The waiter says the bill is £30, so each guest pays £10. “Later the waiter realises the bill should only be £25. To rectify this, he takes £5 from the amount to return to the group. “On the way to the table, the waiter realises that he cannot divide the money equally. As the customers didn't know the total of the revised bill, the waiter decides to just give each of the three friends £1 and keep £2 for himself. “Each guest got £1 back: so now each guest only paid £9; bringing the total paid to £27. The waiter has £2. And £27 + £2 = £29 so, if the guests originally handed over £30, what happened to the remaining £1?”

Every single day he is looking for lifts. He expects me to drive an extra 60 miles away to collect him from his house and drop hin home. Two weeks ago he promised to give me some money towards petrol and he didn't. So I wore a hoody into work with "thanks, doesn't put fuel in the car" with a picture of a fuel display with the needle on "empty" which was printed on it. He still didn't take the hint. So I agreed to give him a lift home this same evening. Driving out of the entrance to the hotel. I said "could I have 10 euro towards petrol?" yet again he turns to me and says I've none on me. He always has 100 in his wallet for "emergencys". I pulled in on hard shoulder and left him to walk the extra 30 miles home.. Since then I've taken sick leave. So nothing has been said about this incident.

When they answered it was a woman whose car had just ran out of petrol on the main road, she pleaded with them to get some petrol from the nearest garage. Not wanting to see anyone stuck, my friend got his red petrol can from the garage and off he went to the petrol station which is about 6/7km each way. When he arrived back he poured the petrol in the car, the woman asked how much it was, €7. She handed him a tenner and asked for the €3 change!!!!!
