Yikes! I am bad - but what would you have done? ..and I want totally honest replies.. 
Ok, last week I went into a newsagent to buy some things. The women behind the counter were gossiping and not showing any attention who was standing waiting to be served - I was in a rush to get somewhere, so was willing them to hurry up and serve me. When I finally got served I handed over a £10 note and waited for my change. Silly woman was still gossiping and not paying any attention. She put the money in the till and handed me back change from a £20 note, therefore giving me back change and £10 that I had given her already.. 
Silly MOO! I wondered whether to fess up or not, but she didnt have a clue, so I thanked her, and took the money and left - saying a polite thank you while stuffing the money back in my purse.. 
Dammit, well she deserved it. So... if you were in my position...? Answers please..  | |

Honestly? ..  I hate being honest  ..
but, you did ask for it.....so I would have given her the money back but I would also have mentioned how she needs to pay more attention to her customers.  | |

BUT, if I was addicted to drugs or something, I would have probably kept it  | |

Fuck that shit, take your extra 10 and bounce. I am sure sometime in your past, you lost a 10 somehow. This is lifes way of balancing the yin with the yan. | |

Dammit, well she deserved it. So... if you were in my position...? Answers please.. Hell yeah she deserved it. Her focus was supposed to be on the customer. I can't stand that at work. I'll be in the middle of an order and the customer wants to stand there and talk in my face, and they get mad when I ignore them. But if I do mess up from talking to them when I shoulda been concentration on the order, they come back in the store flaming mad like it's not they're fault my attention was divided. Then because I do ignore them and concentrate, they think I have an attitude problem when I don't. I can't win. One of Dansa's org hornies

 Not only did I get my things for free, I got more money back than what I already had..
and yes I agree with you but sometimes again, you gotta do a good thing and in return good will repay you 10 fold..  | |

I am in charge of a group of cashiers at work, at this is our number one problem.
They are told over and over not to talk to each other while they have customers, and they just don't stop. This time of year it is so slow they can pretty much talk all day so long as they focus on customers. Then when they are short they are so surprised and it must have been this or that, not the fact that they won't focus :OjitheFanKeybumpersticker: | |
