What would you do??

I would have fired the employee and the customer if a customer knowingly participated in an underhanded deal there is no way I would ever do business with them again that's showing about as much respect for your business as the redneck that comes in wanting double 5.

I read this post while vacationing over Christmas. Now that I am back I found the same thing has happened to me. My assistant manager of 3 years worked on a car and pocketed the cash. There is no sales slip in the computer. He forgot and someone else must have stolen the money. Out of the cash register. That only he knows the code to enter. He has called in sick the last two days after getiing stone cold busted by the customer. Tomorrow morning he is canned and I am screwed because now I cant go on vacation. Ski trip in tahoe? Cancelled. All over a stupid little $100 job.

If I had it to do over, I would've done what TINT said and just close up for a week and take it easy.

I would suggest you go ahead and go skiing...and have fun!

We all need a break every now and then.

On another note... I was doing inventory last week and realized he took some film as well.

Some R20 for sure and I think he got some auto film also.

I've had this same thing happen to me.

I sent the employee down the road and had to wait till summer was over b4 I could take any time off....but it was worth it.

Since then I have had many people come in looking for the "other guy" who hooked him up with !llegal tint for cash$$

total :popcorn and a :spit

sorry to hear it happened to someone else

The amount of the money isn't a factor in most cases an employee is stealing because usually it's a pretty low amount they are caught stealing....couple hundred bucks at best. BUT, it's the principle of things because after getting away with something small, if they thought that they could walk out that door with a couple grand and not get caught.....they'd do it in a heartbeat and then they'd do it again, and again and..........

If they need money, they know I'll empty my pockets to help them in a heartbeat, so why do a select few insist on ripping the shop off whenever they can?
