A verbal warning maybe, perhaps even a written one, but honestly no one would get sacked on the spot for doing what you describe - that's a ridiculous comment designed to make the nature of your complaint sound much more extreme than it really is.
I gotta be honest, this is an awful lot of fuss over a box of cakes. I mean it really is a massive over-reaction - I doubt even a very customer-orientated member of the Morrissons Customer Service team would take it particularly seriously - probably just fob you off with something along the lines of "the matter will referred to the store manager who will investigate it further" and pretty much forget about it.
I really wouldn't expend too much energy over something like this.
But it isn't just over a box of cakes is it? Staff in this store clearly think its OK to have first dibs at reductions of this type. It isn't right from a customer standpoint - and I'm pretty sure its not right from where management stand either! The practice needs stopping.ELITE 5:2

People go to work, with the exception of the odd few i'm sure, to earn a living and feed their families, not to make sure their employer makes as much profit as possible.
Well all I can say is I am glad half of Britain sits unemployed behind their TVs because I really wouldn't want them doing the most menial of jobs :rolleyes:

There's an awful lot of cyber warriors on this thread! How brave! Not....
I'd be fuming too if a shop worker was so rude to me - give the OP a break. If the situation was based in a garage or bank, most of the critics would be baying for the employee's blood IMO.0 -
