When I was working minimum wage at a gas station many eons ago, we would have ‘2 for $x’ specials where x is less than 2 times the individual price of whatever item.
People would often not want to buy 2, but I would ring up 2 in the till for the special price and charge them for the single. Then when the next person did the same, I would charge them for the other single.
So over the day, I would sell 10 energy drinks at say $4, but ring them up as 5 ‘2 for $6’ specials. This would put the till up by $10, and then I would use that $10 to have a free meal.
Anyone else do anything like that?
This is quite clever.
To be honest if you agreed to cover the cost of the drink if the day ended on a odd number of cans. I reckon you should have at it, it’s a good little bonus incentive.
Just in case anyone around their first job is reading this, many businesses would consider this theft
Uhhhhh honey what you’re describing is called “theft”. Also known as “fraud” if you want a different name.
But to answer your question, I usually shit during working hours, so I get paid to shit. It’s a great feeling.
The shop is getting the correct amount of money, nobody loses, nobody cares.
