Should I feel conflicted?
I was on my way home from my friend's when I decided to stop at Steak and Shake's drive-thru for an orange freeze.
When I placed the order for my one freeze, she said she'd have the total at the window. Okay. I see that the little digital sign says my total as $7-something. I am about to say "you got the total wrong" when she told me total was $3-something.
Now I'm almost certain she had pocketed the money. Old trick, right? But it made me kinda mad. I didn't say anything, but I think I should have. First of all, she is dumb to do that when there is a sign with the digital price that reads "if the total you are asked to pay is different than this total, please call #"
Second of all, I feel that my money should go to the company, not straight into her pocket. I work hard for my money, and I feel a bit upset that my money is going right to her by her stealing it (and stealing the food, may I add).
I know I got what I paid for, but this bothers me. Should I let it bother me?
