Your comment brings up an old memory. Lady mentioned once when she was a regional manager at a department store chain. They started having the till go short every so often at one store. Usually it's one person stealing. But looking at the video's they couldn't tell who. And there wasn't a pattern. Then it started happening at two other stores. And then another. The head of security had a hunch, took her to one of the stores after hours and pulled the register apart and they found two hundred dollars inside the machine.
The first store had been the first to get a new model register. And the new model tended to slurp bills out of the till if you closed it too hard.
So this isn't a new software thing. It's a problem with a management culture that shifts blame rather than get to the root of the problem.
- jacquesm 3y agoThat's a great case, and well worth studying for anybody involved in forensics or adjacent fields. Way too often the first target for 'the blame' is stuck with it without someone taking the trouble to really find out what is happening.
