|
|
The FBO, being a very savy businessman, came up with an idea. He went to
the local bank and ordered $4000 in $2 bills. When they arrived he,
for the next month, used the $2 bills to make change for every
transaction that he conducted at the field.
Quote: |
At the next city council meeting, he stood and asked how many
businessmen (and women, I'm sure, to be PC) had gotten a large flux of $2
|
bills? Since this is a small town, most of the business owners were in
attendence at the meeting and many heads bobbed up and down
and a general grumbling was heard as $2 bills are a pain for small, cash
oriented businesses because they have to be handled seperately from all
other cash. The cash drawers don't have a place for them,
tc... "Well", he said, "each one of those $2 bills
came from the airport...." the topic changed as the businesses realized
how much money their local aiport put into the local economy...
This should be relayed to AOPA and have them organize the same event
nationwide. But include it to have pilots who fly places pay with $2
bills.
