I am presenting what was told to me by the store manager as fact on the assumption that she is telling the truth. I did not administer a lie detector test or place her under oath. My bad.

The assumption that you are guilty of is that because they are being paid in cash that they MUST then be illegal. It might be true but it certainly doesn't mean that it's true. There are many legal workers who get paid in cash by employers looking to skirt the rules and save themselves some money.

Not my assumption. It’s what she told me. Again, my bad for not deposing her properly and vetting all sources thoroughly. Perhaps I’ll waterboard her to see if her story changes?

What is the point of this stupid story anyways? That a store having to adjust or create policies based on their customers behavior is bad if it might be because of illegal immigrants? Good grief. What a pointless whine.

My issue was not with the money itself, nor the amount per se. It was with it being in cash/under the table, thus untaxable. If I have to get screwed by the IRS, so should they.

You are making an assumption then, and presenting it as fact.

So, neither of you have any first hand account of how these people are paid.

You are apparently inconvenienced trying to buy a cup of coffee, and it is all somehow tied to how other people are paid. And your local convenience store would rather not have their business.

Sound like one of those stories that preachers make up for effect.

You should come on up and slap her around a bit - you know, show her who’s boss - that you’re onto her. Who knows? Maybe you’ll get a confession; but at the very least, you’ll teach her a valuable lesson and right an unimaginable wrong. My god, you’re too impressive for words!
