    in future, if a card doesn't read properly, try putting it in a plastic bag and swiping it through the plastic, or wrapping some receipt paper around and swiping it... makes them read so much easier somehow. I love seeing these stupid customers who have the lighter coloured magnetic strips, so...

    Isn't that because you have to press NO instead of enter at the end of a spot check nowadays? Also, I had a customer who wanted $400 out.. and I say "I only have $100 in my register at the moment..." she says "So what am I meant to do?"... I ask her "what can I do about it? I can't pull notes...

    That's true... but for instance yesterday I made a mistake of dumping some claims under 89 instead of 99 (damaged as opposed to insurance stock) and was pulled up about it today, because they saw it was done on my numbers...

    I have another idea... when an operator walks away from their register and it automatically secures.. there should be an option for the supervisor to put in their numbers and it will sign off whoever is on the register? Makes it much easier than going into the PC to force sign off... And I...

    Twelve months: If induction tells me so, I think it's pretty good grounds for doing it. I haven't been mispaid for it yet. If i'm allocated an hour, i take an hour, if i'm allocated 30 mins, i take 30 mins, If i'm allocated an hour and take 30 mins, i just write an adjustment, and it's all...

    I was told at induction not to bother signing off for lunch breaks and just use your assigned break and it's deducted automatically.
