I think the is something wrong with him. For the sake of your business I would say fire him. But with so many people without work in our country, I would say if you can fine it within your heart. Forgive him and have one on one talk with him maybe he got problems.
Or worse - eating koekie in the change room.Keep him on; you'll get footage of his next antic - eating a customer's cake while pissing next to her car.
What if this was an elaborate scheme by some random customer in cahoots with parcel guy to elicit a guilt-ridden cake upgrade out of el-you and you unbeknownst to yourself at the time fell for it icing and all?The customer happened to be a low paid domestic worker, hence me feeling pity and compensating her ten fold with a far superior cake....and more of it to boot!
From the labour course we did
2 employees at a local supermarket chain.
1st case - guy working in bakery - took a pie and put it in his backpack - caught leaving the store with food - fired for theft
2nd case - guy working in bakery is hungry, takes a loaf of bread and eats it in full view of staff etc, - also fired for theft - overturned by ccma - and dismissed with 1 months pay or something
2nd case he was unable to perform his duties due to hunger and met a human need - not being deceitful about it
dismissal was allowed as trust is broken - but had to be retrenched
This is MM after all. You get fired and you get 'fired'Long week, I just read that you fried a parcel guy. Must be those buite braai posts I read.

I have a very liberal policy in the store that all my workers are aware of....
If you are hungry or starving, come and speak to me and I will give you something to eat....but do not steal from me...I will catch you.....
