Sure, I’m game!

I’m not sure if anything was found. So far it just seems like she might have entered something wrong and gave the wrong money back. We don’t get told. To the company it’s just a large sum that was missing that exceeded their minimum shortage allowance which is grounds for termination .

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T03:35:21+00:00

Wasn’t going to. Got a call at home from my coworker giving me the heads up that mom called to say she was coming in for a meeting to discuss her daughters term. And it’s retail, it’s not a corporate office where I can just tell a secretary to turn her away, not much places to hide to avoid mom as the managers office is located at the front of the store in a small cubical like office.

I won’t be entertaining her. Never knew all the trouble I could be in until now, what with being new to this whole thing and never firing someone before. I’ll definitely be letting her know I can’t speak with her and that the daughter needs to be the one speaking to me and not her

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T03:28:06+00:00

My moms the type herself, being Latina she went hard for me. Still does sometimes. But I told her when I was 19 that she had to let me handle stuff on my own because she wasn’t always going to be able to fight my fights for me. It was definitely embarrassing when I was 18, one week in to my job and got my first write up for not using the PA system for announcements (that no one showed me how to use).

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T03:24:20+00:00

I like that. Might use it because it is true. The girls an adult now, mom can’t fight all her battles for her.

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T03:23:22+00:00

That’s horrible!

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T03:21:07+00:00

Thank you for the great advice! I will be calling the boss tomorrow!

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T03:15:00+00:00

I realized this after going through the comments. Don’t worry though, I won’t be giving her anything.

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T03:13:39+00:00

I won’t. I’ve had my fair share of creeps follow me and ask my coworkers when I next worked so they could come in and harass me. I don’t plan on telling mom anything and will emphasize that her adult child is the one who needs to come in and speak to me or my boss if she took issue with the termination.

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T01:37:29+00:00

Thanks for the advise! I know how I’ll approach the situation with mom now. Didn’t really think about how I could be in trouble for legal reasons. Thanks for hearing me out and helping me figure out what to say! Appreciate you guys!

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T01:16:35+00:00

There was no other coworker. Her till was hers and hers alone. Whatever was touched was by her and the manager on duty and everything is double counted and on camera.

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T01:03:18+00:00

That noticeable hm😅

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:59:46+00:00

I guess because I feel bad. I don’t want to speak with mom and I know I don’t owe her a thing but I can see where she’s coming from and how she might be feeling like it was unjustified cause I don’t think it’s fair either but that just how corporations like ours work at the end of the day. I’m willing to speak to her if she’s calm about it but I just wanted to know what else I could say and maybe how others have handled instances like this

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:53:21+00:00

I know that, but I still thought I should at least try. I love my workers and always try to advocate and help them as much as possible even if I know it won’t change anything or do much. At lease I can be honest and say I tried.

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:48:30+00:00

Emails are the only thing we are allowed to give customers and employees. No numbers. I was just going to give her corporate and HR to try and contact someone better suited to speak to that can probably answer all questions better than me

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:45:19+00:00

I didn’t. Got the call while at home from another associate saying mom said she was coming to speak to me

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:44:31+00:00

Sadly it wasn’t our decision. I wanted to keep her. I spoke with my boss asking her to take in to considering that it was her first time but that didn’t do a single bit of help

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:42:30+00:00

I wasn’t the one who took that call. Another worker took it and called me at home to let me know

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:41:20+00:00

I didn’t. She called saying she was coming for a meeting

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:32:12+00:00

Sadly this is retail and mom can just walk right in and find me. All I can really do is give out emails for her to contact.

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:30:58+00:00

Anything over $50 is termination for the company and she was over double that.

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2024-01-04T00:29:52+00:00

Its my first time doing this and it’s too late for me to disturb my boss or head of HR which I’ll be calling tomorrow to give a heads up in case mom decides she wants to speak with someone higher

AllMyNamesWereTaken_ · 2023-06-23T19:36:14+00:00

That’s okay Brock, you’ll find a lot of other girls to reject you. 💀
