I must be the BIGGEST moron in the world...
Anyway, yesterday was a particulary busy day and I admit it, I was rushing. It was never ending people and I let myself slip away from being careful.
All was well until I was counting my drawer and discovered that I was $800 short!
Well, the supervisors began searching for it. They sent me home and told me not to worry about it.
The next day I come in and my supervisor pulls me into her office and my heart felt as though it was going to pop out of my chest. It turns out, I went $800 short because I REALLY over paid someone...
The woman's ticket was $1199.99. She gave me $1.00 to make it even. Well somewhere in my head I saw $2000. In the real world outside my twisted and careless mind, it was 1200. I've never felt so stupid in my whole life. It's not a small mistake.
If I don't get a perfect drawer for probably the rest of my life there, I'm gone. I'm so sad too because I love this job. I love the people I work with, I make great money and I am happy.
I realize it was my fault but I wish the woman in my window would've been honest and told me my mistake.
To all: If you know that someone has overpaid you, please say something... It could cost someone their jobs.
I can't forgive myself. It was dumb and in my line of work something like that is the end. I'm so glad they decided to keep me. But I still feel really horrible.
