I am sooooooooooooooo Fired or Maybe Not!!!!!!!!!! The Beauty of Working for WallyWorld is that you can transfer to a different store every six month.  So.............When Gemini Rising asked me to relocate to his Abode - the closest WallyWorld SuperCenter is 33 miles away thus I request a transfer to Sam's Club. My thought was that they would put me back in the Meat Department or perhaps the Bakery where I've worked before. Gadzooks!!!!! They made me a Cashier instead. It means lots and lot of People with lots and lots of Money.  Both of these factors are out of my comfort zone so my choice is to cry a river, build a bridge, get over it and think positive.    It is my experience that my Higher Power tend to put me exactly where I am suppose to be most of the time so.......... The second week I was called on the carpet for an $18. shortage, a unpaid for Pizza, Ad Infinitum......... If this job is not meant to be, that's cool. Nevertheless I would like to leave on good terms epecially since my evaluation at the WallyWorld Meat Market was outstanding. I did go to college and worked in Social Services but I still like the concept of not sitting on my butt all day. Nobody sits on their butt all day at Sam's Club - not even the Managers. Thus my from my Old Union Steward Days - The Power of documentation and my teachings of the Power of Postitve AFFirmations. Luna, Luna - Polished Bright Clear My Mind, My Soul, My Sight Let a Flame of Brilliance Grow All is Clear, I see, I know I started tallying Cash Transactions - Cash Alert! Cash Alert! and documenting the count at the end of the day. Day One - Minus 1.32 Day Two - Minus 0.67 Day Three - Plus 0.11 Day Four - PERFECTION!!!!!!! I did get a slip because a customer walked out with the wrong brand of beer. Heck! Darn Blast and other words to that effect! It's not like I am an expert on Beer. If the Bar Code says Blue Moon by any other name. It's still beer! Life's on Life's Terms! Progress Not Perfection is still the Mode.  Abracadabra  |

I worked retail on several occasions. never for a company that demanded 0 balance though. So I never worried too much about the register. Figured If I got close was good enough. All humans make mistakes. And sometimes registers do also. DustyOldDude

A long time ago I worked part in a carry out beer / wine store,on my first and last evening, the owner counted the cash before he left and the cash after he returned, compared the sales and made a quick analysis..Bottom line he was about to accuse me of stealing when I spoke up and said, If you think I have stolen from the cash register, then you can go straight to hell..A- Hole... Maybe I miss counted but stealing is not in my character..But yours, I watched you cheat a customer before you left, and the problem with cheaters is you think everyone cheats, so you my Ex boss can still go to hell... I was hoping that he would give me an opportunity to slap him down, instead, he lied and said Oh no, I know mistakes happen and we are 4.00 short...Yeal right, I walked out and told him to keep my wages and get..F'ed..... counting money and change is an art...one I do not have..Good luck lady...

Ah, I sell on the side of the road,,,,,in CASH. Customer hands me a twenty, their cost is eight dollars, I stick a little bit of their twenty on my little table under another bag of cornmeal, reach in the right back pocket of my overalls and pull out a roll of ones, peal off two ones and put the rest back in my pocket, then I reach in my left back pocket of my overalls, pull out a roll of fives and tens, open them up and pull off a ten, hand it to the customer, thank them for contributing to my grand daughters college fund, pick up there twenty and place it in the left front pocket of my overalls. Life is simple for me because I make it that way. . The beginning of life, conception..

I cashiered in a grocery store while going to college. I had never been short as I was a perfectionist with the money. One day one of the assistant managers came to close out my register before I left. He said I was 2 cents short. The two pennies were sitting right there on the register. I mentioned the two pennies and he said no they don't count you are short. Needless to say, I didn't find him funny and making a big deal over 2 cents pissed me off. I went to the store manager and told him I was giving him my notice that he better train his assistant managers on how to get along with the employee's who work their butt off. I'm looking to the future and it's out of sight, only in the end shall I take flight.
