Every shit min. wage job I've had people were doing this.

One owner never noticed all the credits being rung up by the one manager. The assistant manager made copies of it to protect her ass but wouldn't turn him in. The owner did catch the one dude literally take money and put it right in his pocket, though. A lot of the staff would just not ring things up and then pocket the money. On simple orders the prices were memorized.

Wow, I worked a few and never did anything like that. To be fair, my family went to church growing up, so I guess the Sunday school stuff sank in. I’m not religious now but I would still be uncomfortable stealing from someone.

Yeah I was raised the same way and would object every time my friend would bring this up. My argument against it was “this is obviously morally wrong, don’t take shit that isn’t yours, also you’re gonna get caught” and her argument was basically “no it isn’t, they’re mean and deserve it, and I’ll never get caught.”

I never thought she’d fuck over her other coworkers, but I guess that’s yet another reason not to do this shit.

Yup, if someone is willing to compromise morals involving basic decency, I'd go as far as to bet they also wouldn't mind screwing over anyone close to them.
