[QUOTE="wingsandsword, post: 2323257, member: 14159"] The manager in the above case had already approved placing the money bag in a locked room, which managers could only access, then changed their mind ex-post-facto and hides the money to create a panic. This is the sort of pointy-hairedness that Scott Adams made his fortune off of. Those of you who are managers and are supporting this should be prepared for backstabbing, treachery, and general ill behavior from their subordinates directed at them, since you have made it clear you consider yourself better than them and their employees start to fight fire with fire. If you ever wonder where employees get the idea to steal or sabotage the company from, antagonism with managers probably plants more than a few seeds. I've worked retail too, and was responsible for carrying bags of sometimes several thousand dollars (during the Christmas season) to the office. If they had any problem with being unable to take the money (like the proper person not being there to accept it), I was fond of standing right in view of the security cameras, visibly holding the money pouch. The money was accounted for, and I couldn't do my job until somebody else did theirs. One time my boss actually yelled at me for [b]not[/b] leaving the money in the office when the person was there to accept it, and I told him in no uncertain terms that if they are going to make me responsible for a bag of company money worth more than a month's wages, I'm not going to hand it over until the proper person signs for it. He threatened to write me up for wasting time, but I asked him would he have been happier if I'd left it on the counter and somebody had walked away with it, to which he begrudgingly decided not to discipline me. Shortly thereafter he was fired, he'd been caught by a new security camera (that he didn't know about) taking money from the safe. [/QUOTE]
