Was this bad, I'm nervous?

Question

Well i work at this one place & i went there today to buy something w/ my parents really quick (i'm off today). the guy working the register(my co-worker) needed help w/ something on the register when he was ringing up our purchases, so i went back & helped him really fast but i pushed the buttons. was this bad,, will i be in trouble? i mean, it's my job & i didn't do anything wrong, but since i wasn't in uniform? I didnt fully ring it up either. i didn't handle the money, i just pressed a few buttons to help him find it.

Answer 1

No. Your helping your co-worker. Thats not bad. Unless u stole something from the register, but thats a different story.

Answer 2

its fine. ive done it a million times sware

Answer 3

I'm sure you'll be fine, especially if nothing went wrong and the problem was solved.  If I were the manager I'd give you kudos for taking the initiative to do thing while on your day off.

Answer 4

Your intentions were good, but hopefully the overhead security people recognized you!

Answer 5

Your fine! I did that before to. You work there your just not currently working. Your not a stranger to the place you are an employee. Don't sweat the small stuff.

Answer 6

lol your fine hun

Answer 7

geez chill out.  haven't we all done those things before?  I wouldn't sweat it, really, you were just helping him out right??  and it's not like you stole something?  you were helping him ring you up for something??

Answer 8

You don't have to be in uniform to help a fellow employee through a purchase.  That shows initiative and being a helpful caring employee.  You did nothing wrong.

Answer 9

Your fired.. just kidding. unless your manager is a control freak you did nothing wrong.. but I 'd let him know first before someone tell him or her.

Answer 10

It was good of you to help him.  I'm sure you co-worker appreciated your assistance.  It saved time for everyone because he did not have to wait for a supervisor.  In the future he will know what to do because of your patience and kindness.

If this situation arises again, you should tell your co-worker the correct buttons to push and let him do it himself.  Don't be nervous; it is never wrong to help someone in need.

Answer 11

Why are you freaking out about this?  You only helped the dude out a little.
