check is not properly written
his payment is overdue
high bill * late fees = engineer owned

Would have been funnier if he wrote the English representation of the formula on the long line, like you're supposed to.

The staleness is strong in this one.

I wish I were enough of a math geek to be able to even start writing the plain english translation

The sum of two thousandths...

two thousands of a dollar plus euler's number raised to the quality of the square root of negative one times pi, plus the sumation of one divided by two raised to the n, from one to infinity...

Gist: Guy gets quote on long distance rate from Verizon at 0.02 cents per minute. He had it clarified and confirmed. Or so he thought. So he goes out of town, uses long distance like crazy, and then gets a bill for 100x more than he figured. They really meant 0.02 dollars, or 2 cents per minute. So there's this big dispute etc, and he sends them a check for 0.02 cents or something like that.

Ahh, I remember a (goku?) thread something like, "You go to Wal-Mart with $100 and find potatoes priced at 0.02c per pound. How many do you buy?"

hmm, i wonder, are you allowed to express the monetary value in terms other than the standard notation. Like could I say 100101 (base 2)?, or use equations and other stuff? I would have to guess not since the peope who would handle them would almost certainlly have no clue what you meant, but I wonder if it ever expecitely forbides it?

 

[Raduque]

"What now bitches?"

If he really sent in that check, I hope they hotlined his service for nonpayment.

I hope you meant mathematicians.

Engineers don't deal with imaginary stuff and we all use scientific notations
