Until recently some unions have required payment in cash. Want some fun? Write a program that runs through your net pay file and then tells you the number of 20s, 10s, 5s, 2s,1s, quarters, nickels, dimes, and pennies you need so that you can draw a cash payroll and have the right number of bills & coins on hand.

I once had a construction union get ready to walk out because they "heard" that their checks were going to be 30-60 minutes late (we had had to replace a bad disk on a /34 the night before). Just "heard" a rumor mind you. They got their checks on time with a good two minutes to spare. None of them said, "Thanks for staying here all night for us" though they also knew we did.
