He basically paid me 3 dollars to eat a quesarito.

Should I go in and give them the extra 10 back or keep it?

Remember, he's probably going to get in trouble regardless.

Lol he's getting written up. It'd be nice to give it back, at least for peace of mind and help them out if managers suspect theft

If this happens to me in an independent place or even a small chain I'll own up, but a big chain I'll happily pocket the mistake.

Yeah, that's kind of my thinking.

No matter what, this guy is going to get written up for it. He was pretty new so I don't think there is any way I could have talked to him without a manager present.

Some managers/owners can be assholes and suspect theft, especially newer workers. Same shit happened to me but luckily I had nepotism on my side.

If you had returned it immediately, he wouldn't get in trouble at all. He would just hold it until someone else needed cash, and put it back in.

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
There is "would've", "should've" and "could've".

This. Most people who don't do the right thing in these situations have those things add up and feel a type of way about themselves subconsciously

It's a fuckin Taco Bell, def pocket it.

Some places don't write workers up until $5 or $10.
Oh well, it will be a good lesson for billy to be more accurate when giving change back.

I didn't notice until about 15 minutes later though.

I don't see how skimming the register and accidentally giving out too much change are the same...at all. Even so, it wasn't taken out of the thief's paycheck.

Edit: Well I guess *technically* it's taken out of his paycheck because he has to pay restitution as he's the one who knowingly committed larceny.
