i was forced to wait (under pain of "loss of customer trust rating") for ten minutes because they wanted to inspect and approve my purchase of a can of redbull because there was no one available with all staff busy.
that amount of time, had i been clocked in at my job, would have entitled me to a quantity of pay greater than the price of the drink.
When I was a kid you could just leave some cash/coins and take the drink in this situation lmao. Progress!
One of the many ways in which the world used to be better, indeed...
Nowadays if a store tried to be that lenient, they'd be robbed blind and bankrupted in short order. But that says more about people struggling and not having the resources they need to survive no matter how hard they work or how willing they are to work than it does about people being moral. It didn't take as many work-hours to afford rent or bills or food back then so people used to have the ability to not care if a little went missing every once in a while. Now there's no margin left and the squeeze only gets tighter and tighter.
Who forced you to wait? Was this one of those people who stand at the door? You know you can just walk past them right?
You must not have very good reading comprehension.
An ultimatum doesn't have to be a threat on your life, you DO realize.
If you don't want the outcome that they threaten you with, then doing what they instructed you not to do is not a constructive or productive course of action and you may wish to reconsider your strategy.
