My boss blamed me because someone left without paying for a tab.
We fucking take people's card details for this purpose and it's not my fault he lost them.
Plus i'm not gonna be threatened to be fired by a man who was on 2 weeks suspension for diluting vodka.

Sounds like a bit of a prick.

Just a bit
I've only been there about 6 weeks now, but a week or so ago I asked him if he minded if I went for a fag break, there were literally about 2 people at the bar, and another guy serving. He told me he 'doesn't do fag breaks, no other staff gets to sit around for 5 minutes doing nothing' then went and sat in the back and told me to bring him a pint.

I had a customer storm in one day demanding to know why we'd charged his card x amount
And he was furious when we told him that he'd left without paying his tab, so had collected the money anyway under the slip he'd signed beforehand.

He was under the impression that if he walked out, then that tab was invalid. Stupid cunt.

maybe you should do your job properly?

There wasn't a single thing I did wrong for that.

It was more a cumulative effort.

How am I to blame for someone walking about the pub without paying?

is it not your job to get people in the pub to pay?

If the pub is busy, and you don't notice them leave, then how're you to know?
Also, if you think the card details are there, which they normally are with tabs, then it doesn't matter.

And if they leave their card behind the bar, they normally pay for it anyway!

Not when they set up tabs
it's up to them then to either come up to me and pay for it or have their card charged.
