I've been working closely with the previous manager to learn everything I can in the event something like this happened. I'm going to be working with the regional manager today and will probably ask about applying for and training into the position.
Wish me luck and send those prayers my way please! Love y'all!
EDIT: Thank you for all the positive words and encouragement! I did literally 90% of the work today and proved I can do it, and me and the regional were talking about what online courses I'll have coming up to move forward in this direction. I am definitely on track to take over here! GOD IS GOOD EVERYONE!
We had to fire someone for that exact thing: time theft.
Guy adjusted his time by 2 hours. Daily. For months. We never knew until one day we checked the cameras for another reason.
If you’re willing to invest the effort, and upper management/owner won’t take action, you can contact the better business bureau and they will open an investigation.
Thank you. I literally have the receipts from when they log on to the till. The alarm company also would have the times when the alarm is deactivated in the mornings. And when our punches are edited it puts an asterisk by the punch.
Also to top all that off the cameras would also show when the store is opened and there are at least 14 inside the building
He thinks the cameras only show the last 24 hours. The guy is not the brightest crayon in the box and he knows that I told upper management.
It is so blatant.
The only thing that keeps me from walking from this job is that I love my customers and I actually love the job I'm doing.
Oh and get this he also edits the time for his girlfriend because she works the same shift as him. I do believe the district manager is going to do something but he's waiting until my boss is able to return I really like her. But she knew what she was getting herself into when she promoted him
If you are the only one that cares why waste your time and talent on a place that is poorly managed ? There are good business owners that need and value good employees. JMO
Yeah I know, but I have customers that care, that's what makes it hard. I truly like my customers. I know that seems hard to believe given the world today. But ours is the store where all the regulars in town go, now I have people telling me they look for my car or they don't stop.
I have other jobs in mind, the benefits are really good at my current job. My mom just passed away a month ago, and she was in hospital for two months from February until the beginning of April, so the year has pretty much been a hot mess for me. Just trying to sort things out now.
I understand, I am very sorry for your loss. Good luck with whatever you decide.
