Quoth pyxee View Post...The worst are the ones that know we don't take them but still try, hoping that the clerk will just let them have to coffee or soda since it has to be thrown away anyways.gulliblekind-harted enough to make an exception "this one time". I am not one of those people. I'm actually a rather cold person and a bit passive-aggressive. I won't make exceptions. I've made customers take food away from their children and go get the exact same items off the shelf to buy. I have no problem with throwing it into the trash in front of them either.Mon aƩroglisseur est plein des anguilles!"

My $0.02, y'all.Quoth corporateslave View PostMy SO was at a small yuppie supermarket recently (it's just the closest to where we live, part of which became inhabited by yuppies, unfortunately, so much of the forest is vanishing and we see bears on occasion, that are being robbed of their natural habitats)Quoth blas87 View PostGranted a lot of college kids are poor, around here, most of them are spoiled brats who are getting a free ride from mom and dad (and if they aren't in the dorms, their parents are paying their rent and bought them their cars and we're lucky if they even work part time)
I've decided to keep it open, hoping that we can have a civil conversation about a sucky customer. For the sake of everyone involved, prove that you guys can.I pray for the strength to change what I can, the inability to change what I can't, and the incapacity to tell the difference -Calvin, Calvin & Hobbes
Being a pessimist and cynical wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't right so often!

The only (very probable) serious abuse of food cards that I personally experienced was when I was at my night job a while back. While there was no racism (perceived or otherwise) involved and I didn't have visual 100% proof, the experience definitely smacked of an abuse.
A man walked up to the counter and made a comment about forgetting some cans and brought up two 12-packs of soda. He then asked me about some cheap half pints "around two bucks". At the time, I didn't think anything of it as this particular customer would get half pints of a fairly cheap liquor, and he would frequently hunt for cans in the process. He used his food card to pay for the sodas and made the comment that he "would be back in about 15 minutes". Right then the wheels started to turn...
Sure enough, he came back with a bottle slip worth $2.40. Given the words he used and the amount of the bottle slip, the guy had to have dumped out the sodas so he could use the deposits on the cans to buy booze. Needless to say, I wasn't happy at all. However, since I didn't physically see him do it (I had other customers to help), I had no actual proof to report it to the proper authorities.Osoroshii kangae nimo osoware masu...
