Suspended from work - I've seen colleagues and customers what I have done

    (a) I was forced to write down names of colleagues that have mentioned or inputted the maximum number of bags reused. I didn't like that as I felt I was grassing up true, loyal friends.

    . . .
    (b) It breaks my heart for me not telling my friends what happened. If they did find out, it will break their hearts too. I

    . . .
    (c) I can see if I get the sack, some colleagues will be leaving as a protest.

    (b) What would break their hearts? That you had given their names as in (a). Sorry to be blunt but that is more likely the case.

    (c) Some colleagues may leave but not in protest, more likely because they have been dismissed or don't want to go through a disciplinary process.

    I wish you well with retaining your job and that you and your colleagues will learn from the experience.
  • As I need to do some shopping between now and Thursday - not at my store. I will produce receipts at the investigation to prove that I shopped at these stores and look no rebag reused points (unless I go through a manned till)

    I find it difficult to look at the ss tills properly as my eye condition makes the glareiness worse and had an op on the eye as well last month.

    Did you not think about telling your manager about this as soon as you noticed it ?
    It seems that although you have been an exemplary worker in the past, when presented with an opportunity to fiddle you took it.

    If any colleague that I have named may be questioned but my name will not be mentioned. If my colleagues mention my name, it won't be discussed.

    Colleague 'Is it to with Jumpy?'
    Manager 'No'

    My line manager knows about the glares. Some supervisors have seen me squinting as well.

    Sorry to say this, but good luck with that delusion. It won't take your colleagues more than 15 minutes to work out that you have grassed them up and why you are absent from work.
