Thanks to this, my brain has decided to go vacation in Hawaii. Just wish I could go with it. This is...wow. When I worked at Wally World we had a $3000 dollar tv walk out the front door, but it was ex-employees who KNEW how to do it..but forgot to be you know..smart and got caught on camera..so they got arrested (never did get the TV back though). This is on a whole new level though..my brain just refuses to take in this information....

Now that I have finally picked myself up off the floor, can you tell me where you work, and what days this particular manager works? I am building a home this year, and will be looking to furnish it with all sorts of electrical goods.. preferably free ones!

Quoth PepperElf View Posti'm betting that both the manager and the customer get banned
and that they press theft charges against one or both
I would hesitate to call this guy a customer though. Customers go into a store to buy merchandise. From what I understand, this guy tried to write a bad check, tried to use a maxed out credit card (or hot card maybe?) and then insulted the cashier when the whole thing was his fault. To be a customer you need to have some money to spend in a store.
A part of me is hoping this is a scam and that the manager and the SC were in on it together. I really don't want to think that there is a manager who is stupid enough to give away a television to someone as a courtesy since they didn't have money to pay for it.

Quoth underemployeed View PostQuestion, how in the hell can a regular cashier have the power to markdown a TV to zero dollars, sounds like crap software to me, at no point should you be even able to come close to that! At my work we authorized to give out at most $10 for customer service issues, and believe me the register doesn't allow anything over that.
As for customer service:
Quoth ReadyToRetire View PostI can understand it being about customer service, but wow, maybe a 5-10% discount would be more appropriate.
My client was seriously grateful and not sucky in the least about that, partly because I got her a couple thousand more than she expected and now got to keep more of that (my fee was withheld).
Quoth sweetj82 View Postdept mngr did say sorry for calling me at home but was so upset just felt like it needed to be doneI'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my keister!

Quoth Despina83 View PostThis is really hard to swallow. No manager on the planet would give away a 1,000 dollar tv for free, nor would the computer let them even if they wanted to. If this story IS somehow true, then my faith in humanity is now close to nil. This story would be shocking enough even WITHOUT the free tv, the guy was being such an over the top dickhead. There's only one proper response to someone like that, and that is get out of our store NOW and don't come back.

The TV alone, depending on the state law, might be enough to make what he did...
FELONY THEFT!
And if it is discovered that he did in fact give other things away, he will DEFINITELY be facing felony charges.

wow, if he has no money, he's not a customer, so who gives a ravin' flip about whether or not this piece of crap is happy?
you manager needs to be shot...with a potato gun. (i love bones...!)look! it's ghengis khan!
Sorry, but while I can do many things, extracting heads from anuses isn't one of them. (so sayeth the irv)

Quoth CatsLairArchives View PostFOR THE RECORD.
At least giving away a $1,000 TV is not as bad as the Best Buy store that lost an entire semi-trailer full of merchandise......
Or the manager that insisted there never was a third trailer, right up until inventory time when the store came up short by roughly 1 trailer
