<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 346544, member: 12789&quot;]A similar case was prosecuted in Indiana I believe where someone took a doughnut in lieu of payment a $5 fee, the person was fired but claimed they put the $5 in the till, the court determined the person engaged in theft of state property by accepting something that was not acceptable for payment of a state fee, this being the doughnut.&nbsp; Even though the person put the $5 in the register, the mere acceptance in the front end of something otherwise jeopardized their job and resulted in their justly being terminated. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you wanted to accept the trade dollar in payment, you should have advised a manager immediately that the customer was tendering that payment, that you thought it might be a good coin and would like to purchase it from the register.&nbsp; If you took it upon yourself to buy the coin out of the register without someone else&#039;s knowledge the presumption is that you are indeed engaging in theft of money and should be terminated.&nbsp; If I caught you doing that, I would have acted in the same fashion, I would have terminated you on the spot.&nbsp; Had you come and explained that the customer tendered said coin in payment, that you would like to purchase it from the register, I would have then approved it and said Hey, it is your lucky day.&nbsp; Even if the thing is counterfeit, it is worth more than $1.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
