Someone just saw an opportunity to get people to give up their cash. Or am I just roleplaying?! |

Please at least do a little research. The guy wasn't using foodstamps, he was using his money that is deposited on the same card in a different account, the food money is completely separate and cannot be used for anything but food at every store I've worked at, it just doesn't go through, you can't even get energy drinks at most places (rightly so, hopefully soda and chips are next) He received his disability money on the other account on the card, he or one of his parents worked for that money and he is now living on it regardless of what you believe it's his to spend as he chooses. It's not government money, it's his or his parents social security money. If he wants to waste it on cancer leave the moron alone. |

It's insane and needs to stop and people like myself are not going to back down on this whatever takes. This isn't about the system. Clearly she only had a problem with it when a 20 yr old wanted to buy some Marlboros. She wasn't out pounding the pavement trying to get the system reformed, she wasn't writing officials, she wasn't doing anything. She had a pissy day and decided to get fresh with a customer in front of other customers knowing full well she was violating policy and denying someone a purchase that was completely legal. This is about an employee thinking she's above the law, above company policy and allowing her personal feelings on something to interfere with her job. She has no legal right to deny that customer something he is legally allowed to purchase. It's that simple. If she has a beef with how funds are being spent she can handle that outside of her job where she wont get fired. Her making a stand against his purchase didn't serve her well. She got fired, she'll probably end up milking the system. She's old, she's got no marketable skills. She fucked herself, for nothing. Let me add that I take issue with the welfare system. I've been very vocal on this forum about that, but again, that isn't what this is about. When I worked there was much I didn't approve of but it was my job to carry out my duties in a certain manner and I knew that I either did it or I was out on my ass. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less.

This is STUPID. A very poorly written story. But it says this: He handed her his EBT card. “I said to him, ‘Do you think that the man in line behind you and the lady behind him want to buy you your cigarettes?’ And he said ‘Yes.’ Then he said, ‘Give me back my card.’ And I said, ‘Give me back my cigarettes.’” First of all - NOWHERE does it say she refused - it just says that she was outspoken about him using the card for cigarettes, so he asked for the card back and she then asked for the cigarettes back. BFD. So her manager calls the gov and is told it's legal to use the card for cigarettes. And the cashier GAVE NOTICE that she was quitting. Then the guy's mother goes into the store and the cashier is outspoken, but there was no absolutely refusal to actually sell the cigarettes. And then . . . some other guy comes in and the cashier tells him to "get a job". Then she was fired. WHAT THE HELL kind of story is this and why is everyone so upset about it? I am 100% against ANYONE on welfare using money to buy beer, cigarettes, etc. But this story is convoluted and makes very little sense - but more absurd than the story is the fact that people are actually GIVING money for this!!! You don't know the exact story. You don't know this woman. You don't know who started the donation fund. You don't know who will actually get the money. Sheer lunacy in the world. |

"First of all - NOWHERE does it say she refused" O'rly? [link to nation.foxnews.com] SHE SAYS RIGHT IN THE VIDEO SHE REFUSED THE CARD. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. I am an evil giraffe, and I shall eat more leaves from this tree than perhaps I should, so that other giraffes may die. |
