Employee discount?
Never having worked in retail I do not know the norm,but I did presume that if an employee recd any kind of discount on in-house purchases, that discount was deducted from the cost at the time of purchase and employee paid the discounted price. Well,a friend was telling me about a relative of hers who recently got a job at a big box hardware store after being let go from lucrative employment elsewhere--another horror story----anyway, it was explained to this new employee that if anything was purchased from store, that cost would be deducted from their wages and be reflected as a deduction on the next paycheck. Is that a normal/ usual way of receiving an employee discount? It sounds sort of weird to me, but I have nothing to compare it too. Just wondering
