Apparently, last Friday (12/7) I was short in my till about $10.00. It wasn't a huge surprise to me because I worked for 10 hours on checkouts that day and I was dead tired towards the end of my shift (my feet hurt so bad, I could barely walk!), although I don't remember anything specific that would've made me short.
I did not find out about this shortage until today (12/15). My HR manager handed me a sheet that was entitled, "Notice of Corrective Action," and made me sign it. I asked her if it was a write-up sheet (because it sure looked like it) and she said no, that I just needed to sign it, but I have my doubts. I'm usually perfect in my tills (why they selected me to work back in the cash office) and this is the first time in the 1 1/2 years I've worked there that I've been approached with a shortage and made to sign a piece of paper.
Maybe they're trying to get rid of me because I want time off after Christmas (funny how my HR manager is so pokey to get back with me about my time off, but she sure is quick to let me know when I've done something wrong!). Even though I suppose they are required to notify and make people sign these "Notice of Corrective Action" forms, it still kind of irked me, because I've counted thousands and thousands of dollars back in the office by myself and I've never lost any money.. yet they're so quick to crucify me over a measly $10.00? And that IS measly, trust me - I've seen MUCH WORSE shortages/overages from checkout operators (like $100+).
