Experiences with People Who Have Strong Memories
My own friend. He has a photographic memory. Really extraordinary anyway.
There is a brief incident that amazes me. One time he and I wanted to order a drink at a cashier. Cashier A said wait a minute
After ordering drinks at the cashier we immediately sat down to the available places. However, it took a long time to order the drink.
So we approached, apparently the person guarding the cashier was different, let’s call it Cashier B. We told cashier B.
Me : Why did the drinks take so long?
Cashier B : Because you haven’t paid for the drink.
Me : Didn’t my friend already pay for the drink?
Cashier B : (Instead he insisted and denied that we hadn’t paid for his drinks).
My friend : (With an angry face). I can show you the money that I paid earlier. If I’m right, give us our money back.
Cashier B : Okay, show me how
My friend : I have given the money with a nominal value of IDR 50,000, with the serial number “xxx”.
