So the employee knows that had a significant amount of money in the drawer over the $75 maximum. They then go and whine to the press, who reports it knowing full well that Cumberland Farms legally can not comment on personnel matters.

Of course the press is happy that they have made the public hate a big evil corporation.

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.

Depends if his supervisor was around to swap out drawers and if he made request earlier and also it was the holiday season they could have been busier. But the press shouldn’t be whining about it in the first place.

I would think there would be some accounting paperwork done before you drop the bills in the safe - how much time does that take when the line is stretching out?

Also, wouldn’t the register have kept track of how much was in the till, so the manager would know the exact amount taken, not be estimating from the surveillance tapes?

Anyway, the company policy deters robbers by only letting them have small amounts, but it also deters cashiers from colluding to give the robbers a big score.

....they then go and whine to the press...

LOL. Yeah, the guy went $25 over the limit during a Christmas rush. Then, had a gun stuck in his face. Then, got fired.

That'll learn him.

Hey Mr. matt, this guy needs to sue this F’d up company for total mental stress, for failing to provide adequate security and safety of their employees.

He needs to hire the very best attorney possible.
