Cumberland Farms is a horrible store. Not only do they abuse their employees, they do the same to customers. I refuse to enter a Cumby.
I’m glad the employee opened his mouth. It’s time that the truth about Cumby’s be exposed.
The actual truth apparently is the employee knew he had too much cash in the drawer...and he was violating policy.
Dispute that.
Firing an employee for having too much money in the till is just.
It means he wasn’t minimizing the risk to himself or his fellow employees. He was also creating an environment where he increased the risk of a follow-up robbery by the robber or one of his co-patriots, because their robbery was rewarded.
Now, imo, it also depends how much he had in the register. If it was only $25, than the boss should have given him a warning, but if it was over $200 above float, as the store claimed than it means the clerk was not paying attention to what was in the till at all.
The one employee in the store who had more money in his register than allowed, (which was a violation of store policy), was robbed........Bad things just happen I guess.
