So I'm 18 and I work at a Culver's restaurant.
Tomorrow (Friday) is my only day off between Tuesday and next Monday.
I was asked by a coworker of mine to cover his 5.5 hour shift tomorrow night, and I said I needed a day off in between.
He said he desperately needs off because his girlfriend is coming home from her 2 week vacation and he's going out to dinner with her and her parents.
He offered me $40 to take his shift (crazy, I know) and I agreed. He said he left his wallet at his mom's house and would pay me the next times he saw me (which would be in like 5 days) and he's a trustworth guy and he swore on it.
Now I kind of feel bad taking his money like this. I know the feeling of trying to get off though, and how hard it is, and I kind of wanted to help him out. But on the otherhand, I really don't want to work on my first Friday night off in over a month, and end up working 7 days in a row.
Should I feel guilty taking $40 from a semi-friend? Or should I be thankful for him, and accept his gift?
