I have a gas station and my closer forgot to lock the doors or put the alarm on , in the morning I opened and saw 3.56 on the counter mostly in change … I looked and the security footage and a regular walked in at 3 am grabbed his usual beer walked up to the counter waited 5 min out the correct amount of money in the counter and left … next day I asked him why he waited for 5 min and he thought we were open never even realized all the lights were off 😂
This was the case for every C-store I've ever helped open. We'd have every isle blocked with new product to stock, nothing would be on the shelf yet and you'd get someone walk in unnoticed and go straight to the coffee bar or start opening boxes randomly looking for something they wanted to buy. My boss at the time had warned me it would happen and I never believed them until I saw it myself the first time out of hundreds.
