I read the story...dont see how they ever thought they could make her reimburse.
however.......a place i worked at years ago was robbed, and that employee on shift, like this one in the story, didnt keep her drawer at a low level. We had a drop safe...soon as you were handed a 20, you were to drop it. Convenience stores and the like have a rule where you keep 35 or less in your drawer, so that you dont become even more of a target for robbers...c stores are so often a target, so they dont want to become known as a place with easily accessible high amounts of cash.

She wasn't fired for not reimbursing the company but rather for not following company policy. She was 'afforded' a chance to get her job back if she paid back the stolen money (that was not supposed to be in the drawer).

Poor publicity move IMO for Popeyes but I hate their chicken.

She should seek work at Chick fil A, much better product.

A lawsuit filed this month by The American Civil Liberties Union could force Catholic charities to provide contraception and abortions for illegal immigrants in their care.

Utterly ridiculous, and time for the Church to get out of the illegal care business. Illegals be damned as far as the heartless ACLU is concerned.

She is just unlucky to be working for the wrong company. Had she been working for AIG and didn't follow policy causing the company to lose Billions she would have been rewarded with a huge bonus

Poor bobby...just doesn't understand. You see, we all deserve the same rights. No one is asking for special rights. I had no idea treating everyone with the same human decency, and everyone being equal was radical.
Well, no one except those who think their religion bestows a special dispensation to discriminate wants special rights.
Could someone, anyone, tell me when christ advocated judgment? Hate? Discrimination? Not treating others with the same behaviors they would want in return?
Or are these few 'Christians' failing to understand the words of the person they say they worship and follow?

Would this place any church opting to enter a political discussion by showing this in danger for losing tax exempt status?

Not as long as Rev. Jesse, Rev. Sharpton and operation PUSH are in existence.

Or don't they count in your argument?

The practice of religion is a right. However forcing someone to partake in said religion is not. Hope that helps a little.

Tolerance again, is not a one-way street but I suppose with the limited resources given to you at birth that is a concept that will forever elude you.

Yea but that would involve going to college and graduating. With her unsure of accepting an offer like:

Z&H Foods owner Amin Dhanani offered to reinstate Holcomb’s position at Popeye’s, along with $2,000 in back pay for her time out of work. Holcomb told KHOU that she was unsure as to whether she would accept the offer.

that probably wouldn't have been a possible.

BTW Popeyes must be paying some hefty wages for her to be able to support four children. That or her husband was working for AIG.

Woman Gets Two Years In Prison For Squeezing Ex-Boyfriend’s Balls Until They Burst

After a scuffle, the victim was finally able to release himself from her clutches and fell to the floor in excruciating pain.

That’s when he noticed his scrotum had completely torn and loose from his body. The victim was forced to “pry his scrotum from Reber’s hand.”

Or that is what her lawyer told her to do... Something tells me Mr. Dahani will be spending many times the money that was stolen.

Well then good luck to her.

I think her chances are slim especially if the article was correct and this wasn't the first time it happened. But I'm sure some lawyer will take on the case.

BTW while conducting a due diligence investigation several years ago I came across a case report involving the founder of Popeye's (now deceased) in a fist fight at a steakhouse billed as 'The Battle of Trash with Cash'. He lost that fight so maybe she can get some of that cash left behind by the trash.

Reading the article, it seems she was a shift manager therefore probably made a decent income. While in grad school, I worked midnight shift at a convenience store, the company had a policy that no more than twenty dollars should be in the register...doubt that policy was followed 99% of the time, folks who set these standards seem to have no real world experience and frankly violation of same is a laughable excuse for firing someone. A pregnant worker being manhandled and robbed should not be fired for violation of same. A good lawyer will probably win such a case.
