That's not always true. Managers need to crack down on the idiots sometimes, especially when customers are trying to break the law.

#23. there you go with your high-falutin' integrity again. The clever businessman will weigh the costs of pissing off a customer against the risk of getting caught selling alcohol to a minor and make the call based on dollars and cents. Even if it's not the right decision.

Even when the customer is legally in the wrong? If the business is held accountable for a customer acquiring a good illegally, I think the penalties involved would generally do more damage than the consequences of turning away a customer.

I'm sorry but I'm very inclined to disagree. The number of ass hats I deal with on a regular basis who have received perfectly good service and the proper products who suddenly start lying about stuff to get free items is ludicrous. I mean just the other day I had to deal with a women who after being rung up learned about a new product, got mad that she couldn't "just have one", and decided to call my store to claim she had requested the new product but was given and charged for the wrong thing. Honoring those peoples demands would shut down a business real quick. Too much free stuff going out.

Perdix is just pointing out the fact that people's sense of entitlement has gone too far, and many businesses bend over forwards to please these twats.

It's true. From personal experience- many times management just gives into their ridiculous claims/demands to get them to shut up and leave. I think it just reinforces the idea that you act like a twat you get what you want.

I dont see why this is being down voted. If OP is in fact her younger sisters legal guardian, I would take it a step further and kick her ass out. She obviously doesn't care or appreciate OP, and will say anything to get her in trouble if she doesn't get her way. That is a toxic relationship that needs severing.

39 - That's really jumping to conclusions though? I'm not trying to be rude or abrasive here but you really aren't the one to decide whether or not OP's sister appreciates her/respects her with just an FML. Plus, kicking her little sister out is very cruel on the guardian's part (if it were to happen, not saying that it did) and a less severe punishment like taking away all permissions (socializing with friend virtually and physically, buying new stuff, etc.) would be more appropriate. Just my opinion on things.

She lied to OPs boss to get her fired. That shows little sister doesnt appreciate her, and she is a self absorbed brat. She is old enough to know better. Who is to say sis grounds her that she will call cps and lie and say she is being abused.

If she makes up lies if she gets pissed she didn't get her way, how would you be sure she wont respond similarly if she was grounded or had privileges revoked?

Alright guys, I'm a Muslim and we aren't supposed to drink beer and alcahol. But even if she wasn't Muslim, she was underage drinking which is ILLEGAL. If my parents were to catch me buying alcahol, they would slap me senseless, my parents don't hit me till I've done something stupid like that. And I don't do stupid shit. OP, tell her guardian/s what she tried to do. But first slap the shit out of her. My siblings are allowed to hit me if I do stupid shit. So slap her senseless. She deserves it.
