I don’t get it. He does a good job on tables and clearly doesn’t like the till, so why is that lame-brained manager putting him on a job he will get fired from? You still need folks to clean the tables. Or maybe a shot at food handling.
Some people just can’t handle the register. Let him make the fries.——I worked for a short stint in the fast food industry as a manager. We (managers) were taught how to do ALL the jobs there, so that we could instruct our staff and also “jump in” when the lines got crazy. I actually liked making the fries and stuffing them (with that special tool) into their respective cardboard holders.
That would test the Possessed Theory. Change one variable and record the results. Brad is being amazingly scientific for one contemplating demon-possession of inanimate objects.
OK, first it was $4, the next day $10, and most recently $20. Unless these amounts have been rounded for the convenience of the story, it seems very suspicious to me that all the shortages are such even amounts. That suggests the possibility that someone else is dipping into the till and, knowing that Brad is a doofus, figures that he will naturally get the blame for it and management wouldn’t have even considered other possibilities.

Don’t blame the cash register that your math’s a little fuzzy.

I see why he became a paramedic. He wouldn’t have been a good used car salesman.

That’s what it all adds up to, right Brad? :D

The cash register isn’t jinxed, it has a Pentium processor. If I remember correctly, they had a problem doing math.

Like, yeah, so if it’s the cash register, why would she change? Brad Logic.

Maybe he should check the drawer of the cash register? Bills have been known to slip through cracks and “disappear”

He needs to be watched how he is doing it.
