Question

Question: if I accepted a counterfeit 100 bill, is my boss allowed to take it from my check to replace the money?
- my manager didn’t train me well enough to be cashier and it’s my first job. he made me assistant manager with barely any training. He leaves me in charge of our store when I’m still having trouble with the cashier.

Answer

I don’t think so, but not 100% sure. It sounds fucked up though.

Answer

depending on the state you live in , that’s not legal . like in louisiana , it’s illegal to do that

Answer

Yes, they can legally do that

Answer

Hmm.. I dunno. Do you have the marker to test for counterfeit bills? Are you supposed to be checking larger bills? I would think they'd have to have it in writing somewhere, or at least made you aware that this would happen in this situation. If there's nothing in place to test for counterfeit bills right at the register, than I don't think you can be held accountable. But I'm not sure..
I waitress, and where I work, any mistakes we make adding our tickets or forgetting to charge for extras, etc, come out of our check. But we are totally at fault there, and this is something you're told right off the bat when you get hired. (It also is most often something like a 20 cent substitution, 40 cent refill, and the most expensive thing on our menu is like 10.99 so worst case you forget to charge a meal. however, my point is that it never amounts to a whole lot.. whereas 100$ is kinda huge)
If they don't have any measures in place to test for counterfeit bills, or have any stated rules/consequences for accepting them, then I would think you'd be able to fight it.
