Coming from someone who used to work in a casino (Winstar)

If a dealer comes up short in the chip tray, they pay it with their tips

If a banker comes up short in their bank, it comes out of their own pocket

Then you should have filed a complaint, because that is illegal

lol

This is what happens: you file a complaint, you never hear from the people in charge of reviewing complaints. Or if you do they say "it's been taken care of", you never get the money you paid back, nothing changes. That's how reality works.

Want to challenge it? Speak up? Guess what, you're fired. But they can't fire me over defending my legal rights! Too bad, you're fired. Out the door. Goodbye.

Your recourse? Spend a lot of money ($20k was quoted as average in my union book when I worked at a supermarket, though it has motivation to exaggerate) or a long winded wrongful firing suit. Even if you win you'll get basically nothing, especially as you are going up against the govt (casino owned by govt). Really following this court method is only profitable if you made a lot of money at your job - some $10 or $15 / h cashier just isn't going to A) have the capital to undertake and it B) if he does, will likely only win a few weeks or months wages, probably less than his court costs. And that's if you win.

So yeah, complaints and rights are nice on paper but have no bearing in an actual working environment.

Oh, and by the way, if you do follow the expensive wrongful firing route, they'll just say that you were fired for some small detail or whatever. And yes, no employee is perfect, everyone has some tiny fault. You'll be officially fired for whatever that is, not for being a nuisance and breaking their status quo by standing up for yourself.

jesus - so like 80% of the side who thinks he should give the money back is saying so because the cashier might lose his job? wtf is wrong with you guys?

also anhuld - i didn't know it was such a hassle to go back there. i think you can call them back tomorrow and just tell them you are sending them a check and ask how it should be addressed etc. even though you should be accountable, it's still a casino mistake.

[/ QUOTE ]

wait, to clarify: if this was somehow accidentally taken from the casino and the employee had no chance of getting in trouble, you would still return it?

thats just insane imo

i would consider a higher morale stance to be to just donate it to a small charity rather than return the $ to add .00000000000000000000001% to the casinos profits for the day

i suspect that in the long run, you'll lose $100 as often as you gain $100.

so, if you think the other party would track you down and return the difference, you should do the same if you want an EV of 0.

This is definitely not true. Most customers would at least politely point out the problem, if not flip a [censored] like many people I know have done.

I would have simply avoided all of this by just saying "[censored] you I quit" the second they said I had to pay the shortage.

alright, spoke to the casino. Told them the situation and that I didnt realize until I went home and counted the money in my wallet. Told them I dont want the cashier getting in trouble, but I can only bring it back tomorrow. Luckily I remember the time I cashed out and which cage it was so they can tell at the end of the day by whichever of the 3 counts is off by 100. Gave them my name and address, told them id be by tomorrow and meet with a manager and take care of it. So well see what happens

Thing is if you are working this job you usually can't afford to not be working it.
