[E. Pluribus Unum]

My first job when I was 16 was working at McDonald's and one of my "friends" came to my counter and begged me to give him a couple of hamburgers and not ring it up. I took some money out of my own pocket and paid for it for him. I was only 16 and I knew that was the proper way to do it.

All these generous people saying "But it was only a biscuit" have obviously never been in a retail business dealing with shrinkage. The biggest danger to your bottom line is product that disappears. Somebody who is dishonest in small things can be dishonest a LOT in small things.

When I worked for McDonalds, at closing we had to throw away 15-20 lb trash bags of food. Closers were not allowed to take any home or risk being fired.

Good on ya, for paying for your friend’s food.

Obama’s job as a teen was at an ice cream place. He was fired for giving free ice cream to his choom buddies and not paying. ....That prefaced him being dishonest in BIG things.
