11 months agoCompanies don’t care. I had a collection agency call me before wanting paid for an unpaid Direct TV bill from when I was 13 that my dad had taken out in my name. I had to get him to read the part on Direct tv’s terms stating that no one under 18 can activate service 4 times before it finally registered to him and they dropped it. Still had to get it removed from my credit report too.
Practice your sleight of hand movements. I’ve figured out how to make it look like I’ve just scanned one thing but moved two at both Walmart and Kroger self checkouts without any alarms going off. Helps a lot with my getting my employee discount for having to run a register.
