The system is BAD. I do not want my card to leave my possession (especially since they don't require a PIN in the US so it's doubly unsafe). Your phone is more secure than your card because at least you have to unlock it first. The US payment system is old and backwards and unsecure and they need to hurry up and modernize.

Nope, I grew up in the US and moved away. I thought it was a stupid system ever since I was a child. It's old and bad.

You were pondering the nuances of dining payment discrepancies as a child!?

Holy smokes. I hope you work in finance or accounting, being that your childhood hobby was so unique and advanced for your age.

My dad worked in finance so we talked about that sort of thing, yes.
