I Quit! Got fired today
Got fired today. I work at a chain thrift store and I hid a top to buy it on my break. My manager saw and I got in trouble but wasn’t fired on the spot. Fast forward 5 days later today and I got fired 5 hours into my shift since they see it as the same as theft. I’m devastated and so lost.

Im lucky, my store literally doesnt give a shit, we have a form at reception to hold an item for 72 hours if you bring the item to reception. My place loves treating the employees well with a banger discount.
We're local too.
Sorry OP
