I was thinking they should add a few more f'ing steps to process a simple credit card transaction. However I do kinda like the guessing game... when it says Enter pin number do you hit "clear" or "Cancel" some places you hit clear and some places you hit cancel, but some places if you hit 'cancel' it cancels your transaction all together. I had one guy at a sporting goods store tell me I needed to hit credit, then yes twice, then credit again, then yes...."Whatever you say buddy"
