    I agree completely, I've posted advice to the OP to that end.

    I just think that taking the p out of the situation isn't a 'dose of reality' it's just damn rude. Maybe it's just me...

    Putting your job at risk for a few measly loyalty card points is damn stupid; if you ask me. It takes all sorts.
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.

    So for staff, they can easily turn a blind eye to the 3 items scanned in the 9 bags used. Hmm.......

    staff i worked with were honest when serving other colleagues and didnt cheat it

    you quoted my reply about fast track, if 3 items were scanned using fast track and you said oh ive used 9 bags, i think the checkout operator would query it

    It is, it's naive and completely misjudged but then I guess the same thing applies to making private phone calls or taking post-it notes home. For what it's worth I hope the OP isn't dismissed over this but more than that I hope they learn a lesson from it. Not just the obvious one but more about work relationships and taking responsibility for your actions.

    It may well do but don't give the OP ideas about including even more irrelevances. :D

    Yes, that's the point. You think they would.

    But there are no checks in place to verify any of this. What if they were mates and splitting the difference?

    I've never used it because I've always thought it was insane....but having the staff use it and letting other staff turn a blind eye is ludicrous.
