From your manager's point of view, it's not worth the trouble of a possble lawsuit or the risk of him getting pissed and coming back to shoot everyone.

A customer wrote me a check for a car cd player and some speakers. It was a starter check, so I told him I couldn't take it. He grabbed a different checkbook and wrote me a different check. The check seemed kind of off so I called the bank to verify funds on it. The lady told me that the account was closed.

Now we have a pretty big problem with bad checks, so I get mad about this kind of thing. I told my boss about it and told him I was calling the cops since the amount was sufficient to charge him with a felony. He told me to just tell the guy to pay cash or leave. I told him that guys like him are the reason we have to be so strict on checks. I thought the guy deserved to learn not to write bad checks at our store. But my boss would not give in.

So I went back and told the "customer" that his check wasn't going to work. He gave me a stupid look and asked why. My exact words were, "This is a closed account. The boss says to pay cash or take your business elsewhere." He was trying to act all shocked, but I could tell it was just an act.

I still wish I could have witnessed that little weasel get hauled off in handcuffs.

CLIFFS:
Jackass tried writing me a bad check
I wanted to have him arrested
Boss vetoed me
I am still pissed

You know the store is lax towards criminals. Now have a few of your friends shoplift some items.
