got into money troubles and thought selling gift cards from my job would help me out.
credited [apparently] $2400 of gift cards, and didnt pay for them.
our system is so flimsy that if you hit an extra 1, you would have $21.00 instead of $20.
it automatically loads each card once you swipe it and enter a number. even if you dont tender the amount out.
talked with the loss prevention people for close to 2 hours two, filled out a statement and signed all the paper work.
was suspended from work [odd] until further notice.
which would be tomorrow before 3pm my time.
sold these gift cards and everything was fine till the "customers" got them, and they were unusable gift cards.
a family member whos a lawyer says judging off of the fact that i was honest and straight forward, there should be no reason for jail time.
very scared and frightened and disappointed in myself.
i told the company i was sorry, and signed a paper saying i would pay it back by the end of July.
also told the company i would do anything including community service to help the situation.
input??
need advice on what you all think will happen, and how to take care of the situation
i have nothing else on my record and have never done anything like this before
-thanks
