Question

Your manager requires that you, as cashier, immediately enter each sale on the register. Lately, lunch hour traffic has increased and the assistant manager instructs you to avoid delays by taking customer's cash and making change without entering the sale. The assistant manager says she will add up the cash and enter sales with one transaction after the lunch crowd leaves. She says that, in this way, the register will always match the cash amount when the manager arrives at 3pm. What should you do? Why?

Explanation / Answer

It is a case of ethical decision, here, you must have to note that you should always choose a decision based on ethics, you should never compromise on the cost attached to it. Here, I would rather enter the sales at the register immediately, since doing this activity is not advisable because you tend to miss something, some sales, you might would have missed. hence I would rather enter the cash immediately so that no ommisions should happen, and will obey the order of our manager as well at the same time, which is actually a right decision also to eneter the sales in the register at the moment you collect it. If you keep it for future, Itr might not be matching at the end, and then you have to adjust it, which is ethically not right also.
