Re: Scam or something new?

OKAY! So, after a quite a few more times going, I can finally update you guys.

 

The first 3 times I went, he was still there but no longer offering the app. Which was a little weird but I did hear a man a few people in front of me the one day asking if he still had applications, because he checked his credit and it was pretty good so he wanted to try now. The manager seemed really nervous and said no and kind of ignored the topic.

 

Well, the 4th time i went, he was gone. I asked the girl if it was just his day off and she said no but she doesnt know what happened or why hes not there.

 

Same the 5th time.

 

However, the 6th time i went, a new manager was there. And he said he was from another store filling in until they hire a new one. I casually asked why the other manager was gone and the guy was like, he was trying to get applications for a fake credit card, can you believe it?! He was so shocked and angry it seemed.

 

So i guess theres the answer. The manager is being replaced and as far as charges go, since thats none of my business I have NO idea but I can definitely imagine there will be some.

And as far as the people saying theyd be worried about eating the donuts 3-4 times a week, its not me eating them for the most part. I just pay with my card for my boss and co-workers. I dont eat them most of the time, though they're fantastic, they hurt my teeth lol
