Passage 1: As a cashier at a large retail store, I can vouch for the fact that Senior
Citizens Discount Day is a bad idea. It is uncomfortable to ask
customers whether they qualify for the discount, as many people do
not like revealing their age. I've also had several customers return to
the store, upset that they missed out on the discount because I didn't
ask their age. It is a no-win situation for cashiers.
Passage 2:
Kleinhan's department store understands the challenges of living on a
fixed income. That's why we value our senior shoppers so much. In
order to express our appreciation and make your shopping experience
easier, we now offer a 20 percent discount to senior citizens every
Wednesday
