Some customers hear whatever benefits them.
A shopper asked whether the cashier’s register was open.
The employee said it wasn’t.
He somehow heard “free.”
Let’s see how this one played out.
Guy casually steals Chinese food
I work at a large chain grocery store where my main job is cash accountability, so I just count all of the registers at the end of the night.
Last night, while I was counting a register, a customer came up to me. They asked if I was open so they could buy their Chinese food.
It isn’t an unusual circumstance, but what happened afterwards was.
Here’s the conversation between this man and the customer.
Me will be me, CC for casual criminal.
CC: “Hey, man. Are you open?”
Me: “No, I’m not, sorry. You’ll have to check out at one of the other registers.”
CC: “It’s cool man.”
He saw the customer walking down the parking lot without paying for his Chinese food.
I then glance up and notice the CC was nowhere in sight.
Until I look outside and see them half way down the parking lot with the Chinese food unpaid for.
I wasn’t able to confront him since I have multiple bags of cash that I can’t leave unattended, so I just stood there, dumbfounded by what just happened.
He couldn’t believe that some people think it’s okay not to pay for their purchases.
It just blows my mind that someone would walk up and ask if you’re open and if you say no, they just assume they can just walk out without paying.
Weird night.
That is weird that the customer would walk away without paying. Did he misunderstand?
