Last time I checked, we were in the USA...

Hello there!!!! I know it's been a few days since I posted something, mostly since I have been working, but I'm back with a new discussion :)
Today I want to talk about foreign money/currency. And believe me there is a lot of that out there.
I have the privilege of not only living in the state that the "Happiest Place on Earth" is located (I am speaking of Disney World, if you were not aware) but I also work at a place where people come thru to visit this happy place. Yayyy me, right?!?!? Daily I have to serve foreigners at my workplace. My question to you foreigners is, why would you give me money from your country to pay for your bill when I can't do anything with it?!?!?! I live in USA where I pay for my things with American money!!! So you leaving any currency from your country or from a country you just visited isn't helping me!!!! That is like throwing money in the trash for me because I can't use it. So not only have you not paid most of your bill, now I have to pay for it, so you're screwing me over. Yes you!!!!! So please if you're too lazy to get your money exchanged to eat at my establishment and pay for it, then don't bother!!!! Wait til you get home and can use your money there. I'm just saying, it's a lil ridiculous that I have to go out of my way to change your currency just so I can pay your bill. I don't get paid for that and half of the time I don't even get a decent tip!
Another FYI for ya! Keep it in mind when you're visiting a different country and you're buying and paying for things. You're money doesn't work there so why even try?!?!? Stop making it so difficult when it is so simple! Use a damn credit card, and we all know you guys have one!!! Let's be real!!!
Thanks for hearing me out and I am sure there are plenty of servers out there that feel me on this blog posting. Let it be known and hopefully this educates many on how annoying that can be. Let's use what is called, COMMON SENSE!!!!
