Incident happened at an "underground mass transit" sandwich shop at a Pilot truck stop. All of this brand of sandwich shop at Pilot have a big sign (located at the "choose your bread" station of the assembly line) that they don't accept the sandwich shop's stored value cards.
In line ahead of me was a group of 3 teenagers. They order their sandwiches, food is prepared, and they get to the register. Guess what they present as a method of payment? Naturally, it's refused (the sign SAID these cards aren't accepted here). Kids only have $15 in cash. They wind up calling their mother (who's going to be picking them up there) to bring the cash to pay for the food.
Worker makes a (IMNSHO) bad move - lets them start eating before the mother arrives. In other words, if anything goes wrong with the payment process, worker is in deep shit.
