"WHILE STANDING AT THE CASHIER." Pointing out what appears to be an error on the part of one of his staff? Think about this? You do that, the manager is completely pissed off with the staff member and fires he or she? "Damn I didn't mean you should fire the employee?" If you are a decent human being you didn't want the person fired! :-( Reprimanded? But not fired! Jobs are tough to come by these days. Hey he could be a family man with 4 kids? You get him fired and wouldn't you feel like a piece of crap if you caused that? Me? I figure a mistake has been committed, make use of it and go for the buy out! QUIETLY!QUICKLY!OUT OF STORE! If there are repercussions later you don't need to hear about it, nor be part of it. ERGO? YOUR COOL! And comfortable with a million photo envelopes for the next 100 years. And you have no idea if anyone were fired? KISS!:-) cheers, Dr. Ted Grant O.C. -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Ken Carney Sent: August-14-16 5:42 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: [Leica] Ethics in photography Here is today's question. I am out of photo mailers, so I go to Staples to get some more. I don't use them that often, so bought a pack of 11x14 for $7.99. At checkout, the cashier says that will be 54 cents. I say, that can't be right unless there is some really extreme sale. The cashier says it is, that is how it scans. Now the price is preposterous on its face, since I'm sure there is nothing in the store that sells for 54 cents. So, the question is, should I have brought it to a manager's attention instead of buying out the remaining store stock? Ken _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
