Showing Original Post only (View all)One of my relatives quit a job this past week. [View all]
She worked in a mini-mart/gas station, and the owner was demanding that she (and three others) pay $250 EACH for people who had driven off without paying for their gas.
4 workers, including my relative told the owner to fuck off and quit.
The worst part is the owner is too cheap to put in cameras outside so the gas thieves could have their license plate on camera.
Not sure now what my relative is going to do.

That also seems reasonable with the increased usage of cell phones and other electrical equipment.

You could really cut unemployment by requiring one attendant to pump and another to open the gascap
