Well last night at my volunteer "job" if you could even call it that I got to meet lasvegasbarbie, a girl I've watched on youtube. She was really nice and she asked if I'd like a picture with her which I gladly accepted. I refunded her tickets she paid, I'd feel bad if I didn't give it back to her. But that made my night, it was so awesome to meet someone that I follow on youtube out of pure chance.
I feel like I stole money from my deli job today. As I was checking out today, and turning in all of my driver paperwork so I can get my tips and delivery fees there was a problem. I should've made $43.00 in tips and gas expense, each delivery gives me $3.00 in cash. But I ended up taking home $79.00. What happened was the last delivery I had was paid in cash, and for whatever reason my manager didn't enter it into the computer and counted me as doing only four deliveries instead of five. So she only gave me $40.00 out of the register and I ended up taking the $39.00 from the cash delivery home. I tried to give her the $39.00 in the store as I was checking out and she said that it was mine.
She then proceeded to tell me that I need to keep a book stating what I make in tips and how many deliveries I made so I know I don't get short changed by whoever is doing my check out for the day. Then, she asked how I didn't know she short changed me or how my other co-workers wouldn't screw me over tomorrow. I was so confused at the time I was like, "alright, well... I'll see you tomorrow then." And so I left.
I sat in my car for about 10 minutes trying to figure out what happened because I knew there was no way I made $79.00 today. I was almost home when I figured it out. In tips I made $28.00 and in gas expense I made $15.00. So that's $43.00. She gave me $40.00 out of the register, meaning she didn't count one of my deliveries, the cash one. Which is why she wouldn't take the $39.00 I was trying to hand her. So I ended up with $79.00. I called her once I got home and she said her register was perfect and that she'd explain it to me tomorrow.
I'm not sure what to do with this money, I've tried twice to give it to her but she won't admit that she's wrong. I know exactly what happened too. When she looked at the cash delivery form she put it to the side and never entered it into the computer, which is why her register is showing as perfect. And that also explains why I was short $3.00 in gas expenses. But, I'm ahead $39.00, more or less, and I feel like an idiot trying to give back this money after she went through that whole speech about ME needing to keep tabs on MY money during check out when SHE can't keep tabs on HER money that she let me have. I took the cost of an entire delivery home and she's too blind to even see it.
Now, if I somehow am wrong, which I find hard to believe, then I guess I'm being an annoying idiot who's trying to give back money that he can't keep tabs on. But, I hate to be arrogant and say, "I'm right, I can completly steal this money because you missed a form that I KNOW you looked at and just put to the side." But, whatever.
I feel like I'm in a precarious place because even though I'm trying to give the store back its money, I did kind of steal it, so I don't want to get in trouble. I guess I'll find out what's going to happen tomorrow. I really think that unless if I force my point that she's going to tell me that she's right again and make me look like an idiot. Fortunately other co-workers saw me trying to give her the money from the delivery so I have that going for me. At least they can't say I didn't even present the money for her to take.
Yeah, that was a really long and confusing post. It took me an hour to finally piece together what had happened and even then it doesn't look like I'll get to give it back.
