00:00Excuse me. I was wondering if you had this in a smaller size.

00:13You know what? We actually keep these in a special part of the store. I'll take you to it, huh?

00:17Awesome. Thank you so much. No problem. Just doing my job.

00:20Oh, great.

00:30Hey. Pretty loud over here, Becky. You dropping something?

00:47Oh, just a couple of coins. It must have slipped in my hands.

00:52Uh-huh. Yeah. Funny how that happens when you open the register, huh?

00:59Look, I just saw you put some coins into your pocket.

01:05Come on, Mark. It's just a few cents. No one's gonna miss it.

01:11Maybe not. But that's not the point, is it? I mean, we're supposed to be running a business here, Becky, not running side hustles.

01:19Oh, lighten up, Mr. Perfect. It's not like I'm robbing a bank. Just making up for what they don't pay us.

01:27Becky, you're better than this. I mean, if management finds out, it's not gonna end well. I'm saying this as your friend.

01:37You don't get it, Mark. Not everyone can afford to be like goody-two-shoes. Some of us need to find ways to get by.

01:45I get it, Becky. I really do. But this... This isn't the way. Just think about it, okay?

01:55Yeah, whatever. I'll think about it.

01:59Oh, hey there. Um, did you find everything you needed today?

02:08I'm just gonna take this one piece.

02:10Great.

02:16Actually, um, this might be a strange question, but I was wondering, do you actually enjoy working here?

02:25Um, yeah, I guess. I mean, it's your job, right?

02:32Well, it seems like you've got a pretty laxed approach here on your phone and stuff. I was just wondering.

02:39Well, you know, you gotta keep things chill. No need to stress out over folding shirts.

02:46Becky, maybe you should focus on the customer. It's kind of our job after all.

02:50Yep. Yeah, I got it, Mark. No need to babysit me.

02:55I think he's just trying to make sure the customer has a good experience.

03:00It's actually nice to see someone take pride in their work.

03:05Sure. Sure. We all have our different styles, I guess.

03:11Okay, lady. That's going to be $29.

03:16Alright, $29. Let's see here. Um, alright.

03:21Here we go.

03:36Hey, uh, Becky? Wait, I think you miscounted the change. Let me fix that.

03:40What? No, I didn't. It's fine.

03:44Hey, I'm sorry, ma'am.

03:53Mistakes happened, Becky. Okay? Better to fix them right away.

03:57Yeah. Sure.

03:59Thank you, Mark.

04:01Thank you for, um, your honesty. It's absolutely refreshing.

04:07Trying to do my job, ma'am.

04:09And I appreciate that so much.

04:12Um, well, thank you. I hope you enjoy your shift.

04:18Excuse me. Sorry to bother you so close to closing, but I forgot to pick up something really important.

04:36I need a blazer for a really big meeting tomorrow.

04:40Oh, yeah. Sure. It's somewhere over there. Help yourself.

04:47Okay. Good evening, ma'am. Back again, I see.

04:50What can I help you find?

04:52Yes, I completely forgot I needed to pick up a blazer for a really important meeting.

04:57Do you think you can help me find one?

04:59Absolutely. We have a few styles that you might love. Perfect for you.

05:03For you? Let's go. Follow me.

05:07Okay. Um...

05:10Oh! Here we go.

05:12How about this one?

05:13Nice, clean look. Very professional. Very good for a meeting.

05:17Oh, I think it's perfect, Mark. Thank you so much.

05:21Absolutely. My pleasure. Let's get you set up at the register, huh?

05:24All right.

05:25Oh, I love it.

05:28I think I found the blazer I wanted.

05:31All righty. Let's ring it up.

05:37Awesome.

05:38Oh!

05:40That would be 75.

05:41And by the way, the card machine is down, so you need to pay in cash.

05:46That's strange.

05:48I just saw you using the card machine earlier, and it was fine. Are you sure it's down?

05:54Um, yeah. It was acting up earlier. Sometimes it does that, you know, close to the closing time. You know how it is.

06:03All right. But, um, 75? That seems a little bit high for this blazer. Could you just double check the price for me?

06:12Yeah, sure.

06:14But that's what the system says, so, um...

06:20Hey, uh, excuse me. Becky, mind if I take a look?

06:24Sure. But, it's fine. I already checked it.

06:29Yeah, let's just be sure, right? It's only gonna take a second.

06:36Blazer's actually $60. I'm not sure why. It was entered in at 75.

06:42I must have made a mistake. You know, at the end of the day, things get a little hectic.

06:51That's not a mistake, Becky. That's deliberate. And I happen to know that the credit card machine isn't down either.

07:01Now, before you say anything else, let me just introduce myself.

07:05I'm Natasha Reynolds, the CEO of this store chain. And I came here today because I've been receiving complaints.

07:12And I wanted to see for myself what exactly was happening here.

07:17Wait, wait, wait. I can explain. It was just, it was just a little mistake. I swear.

07:23No, no, no. That's the problem. It wasn't a mistake.

07:27You've been stealing from customers. And tonight, you tried to steal from me.

07:34That's not acceptable. It's actually very unacceptable. And I will not tolerate it.

07:40I'm sorry, Becky. But you're fired. Effective immediately.

07:45Fine. Whatever. This place sucks anyways.

07:56Thanks for stepping in, Mark. Your honesty and professionalism didn't go unnoticed. And I so appreciate it.

08:01Just doing my job, ma'am. Thank you.

08:03And you're doing it very well. Have a good night, Mark. And I'll see you soon.

08:09Looks like a raise is coming your way.
