Yes, I understand that you weren't very good at fractions in school. Really, I sympathize. But if you're going to work in the butcher's department, I *do* expect you to learn what "2/3 of a pound" means. And no, 1.25 pounds isn't close...
And I grumble when they give me a blank look when I ask for 300 grams. Usually, they brighten up when I translate that to about 2/3 of a pound. And yeah, I'd expect them to know at least one of those.
