You really have to wonder about the lack of security at any business that would allow a new employee access to that amount of money. I used to manage a very successful fast food operation and if any of my managers allowed a till to build to more than $300 to $400 dollars before being skimmed they would be in serious trouble! Just some information, my site had six registers running peak times breakfast, lunch and dinner. A very high volume location.

That is what popped in to my mind right away. Who leaves more than $2000 in a drawer? That is just stupid.

Obviously these owners weren’t paying attention when they went to the franchise management school.
