he had been asked not to pay customers’ tolls before, but had never formally been written up.


I'm surprised at this. Most everywhere I've worked, you had to have had a formal writeup on record before an offense became terminable.

I can't understand why they care where the toll money comes from.

He'd been on the job too long, was making too much money, and now he's gone because they found a reason.

I bet what he's supposed to do is note the license plate and turn them in so they get sent a $400 fine or something. He pays the toll for them and that takes away money from the city.

Just a hunch.

Sounds like he was tired of the petty administrative bullshit and just told them to fire him.

That letter stated, “On more than one occasion I have had to talk to more than one toll tender about trying to cover up a mistake. People make mistakes and I don’t have a problem with that, just write it down. What I do have a problem with is when people try to cover up their mistake!!” Signed, Kathy Banson-Verrico.

Suck a dick.

Sam said he was busy talking to the customer in the SUV pulling a little trailer behind. He said he specifically remembers hitting the “car” button instead of the “car with trailer” button, and realized his mistake as the customer drove away.

“It was entirely my fault, I wasn’t paying attention,” he said. “So I put the money in the drawer.”

Sounds like an admission to me.

WTF is up with Florida?
Graham also says that in order to avoid a warning, the men should first check wind patterns before starting to barbecue—or upgrade their equipment to a newer model designed to curtail smoke and odors.

Where I live, complaining about something that petty might just get your ass kicked.
