    Not paid enough to say “no refunds” but given the ability to authorize giving out money for unofficial reasons? If it’s unauthorized, then they’re essentially stealing cash and assuming an extremely high risk of getting fired to avoid confrontation.

    I’ve never worked a gas station, but I’ve worked fast food and I would have been fired soooo fast if I were giving out unauthorized refunds. Maybe even prosecuted if the amount was large enough. I’ve seen people fired for less.

      I work at a gas station that does food, and we can refund almost anything at the whim of the cashier, sure there should be a reason, but you don’t ask a manager or whatever you just do it if it’s the right thing.

      Lotto on the other hand belongs with things like phone credit and fuel. If the system even lets you, it’s going to log it and management will know and expect a good explanation on what the fuck you are doing.
