How does this \u00a0information change your perspective of employee theft?<\/p>\n<p>Heres the attatchment in case it doesn&#8217;t open<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Melissa just clocked in for the second half of her double shift. She is a server at the Old Town<\/p>\n<p>Spaghetti Store<\/p>\n<p>. She really likes her job, but<\/p>\n<p>she is tired after all of the double shifts she has been<\/p>\n<p>pulling lately. Plus, business has been slower so her tips have been lower. As a result, she is a<\/p>\n<p>little behind on her bills and definitely short on fun money.<\/p>\n<p>She doesn\u2019t mind working tonight. Me<\/p>\n<p>lissa is dating Jeff, the bartender on duty tonight. Because<\/p>\n<p>they are dating, he will sometimes help her out with drink orders. He will go over to the tables,<\/p>\n<p>take the drink orders<\/p>\n<p>,<\/p>\n<p>deliver the drinks<\/p>\n<p>,<\/p>\n<p>and just tell her what the guests have ordered. So, wi<\/p>\n<p>th<\/p>\n<p>his help, tonight should be fairly easy.<\/p>\n<p>Immediately after clocking in, she is double seated with<\/p>\n<p>two<\/p>\n<p>parties of<\/p>\n<p>eight<\/p>\n<p>. Jeff walks over<\/p>\n<p>to<\/p>\n<p>greet<\/p>\n<p>one of the tables for her and takes the drink order while she greets the second. She lets Jeff<\/p>\n<p>know the dr<\/p>\n<p>inks she needs from the bar and he tells her the drink order from the second table. He<\/p>\n<p>works on the alcoholic beverages while she prepares the others and gets bread for both tables.<\/p>\n<p>She is able to quickly get the orders taken for both tables and get to wor<\/p>\n<p>k on their<\/p>\n<p>soups and<\/p>\n<p>salads.<\/p>\n<p>To save time, Melissa only enters the items from the kitchen into the POS for now. Her boss is<\/p>\n<p>standing there and sees that she does not enter the salads and soups that she will get from the<\/p>\n<p>kitchen. He asks her why<\/p>\n<p>,<\/p>\n<p>and she<\/p>\n<p>indicates that she is super busy and will add them when she is<\/p>\n<p>caught up. Melissa continues to work on these tables<\/p>\n<p>,<\/p>\n<p>and she is excited that she might earn some<\/p>\n<p>extra money tonight. Her company had some coupons in the paper today and she picked up a few<\/p>\n<p>ex<\/p>\n<p>tra copies. If these customers pay in cash, she wil<\/p>\n<p>l have a manager apply a coupon<\/p>\n<p>after they<\/p>\n<p>leave and then she can keep the extra money.<\/p>\n<p>Melissa continues with these<\/p>\n<p>two<\/p>\n<p>parties. When they ask for refills on their beverages, Melissa<\/p>\n<p>runs over to Jeff w<\/p>\n<p>ho gets them ready for her right away.<\/p>\n<p>Melissa gets the soups and salads out<\/p>\n<p>and the food from the kitchen is not far behind. Fortunately, most<\/p>\n<p>of the guests order salads, so<\/p>\n<p>there is not a lot of food from the kitchen. With Jeff\u2019s help, Melissa keeps thei<\/p>\n<p>r drinks refilled<\/p>\n<p>and the bread filled<\/p>\n<p>,<\/p>\n<p>and they are happy with the service they received.<\/p>\n<p>Each of the guests is paying individually, so Melissa only rings up one of the salads for now. She<\/p>\n<p>reprints the guest check for each of the guest<\/p>\n<p>s<\/p>\n<p>that had that as<\/p>\n<p>their order. She prints the checks<\/p>\n<p>for the other guest. And then, she takes them their bills. She is glad that most of them are paying<\/p>\n<p>in cash as she has her own cash bank and the credit card machine takes too much time. She does<\/p>\n<p>have to go over and add a<\/p>\n<p>nother salad because<\/p>\n<p>two<\/p>\n<p>of the salad guests paid with a credit card. As<\/p>\n<p>these guests leave the restaurant, Melissa is excited to count the money and see that she actually<\/p>\n<p>made more money on this table than the restaurant did<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"text-info\"><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Employee Theft \u00a0Read the following attachment. \u00a0What is your reaction to this story?
