Hi All, I am a manager in fashion retail shop . My assisiatnt manager was stealing customer credit c details to shop on line and getting delivered to our store without my knowledge . 29th Dec , I worn my assistant manager uniform jacket by mistake, I felt some bulky stuff in his pocket when pulled it out they were credit card nos written in his own hand writting , I was shoked but not surprise Because I always had suspicion he was upto some thing . I already noticed there were few parcel deliveries on my holidays and days off .After asking other staff , I established this delivery business is some thing related to these c numbers. I knew already he has a few aquitances in H.O and even area manager wont help me(for reasons) I contacted one of the director and asked for meeting and on the same day his friend phoned in store and asked culprit home telephone number from one of my staff . I presented all evidences to director and requested full investaigation and possibly his suspension . Next day when I came back to work he( asst manager) said to me that he knew I was in h..o. I was not surprised again because someone his (friend) saw me with director in H.O. I asked him (asst man) if you know I was in h.o . you must know then why I was there . He lost in thoughts then I asked him you want to tell me any thing before I contact police , he admitted his fraud to me . I called HR manager to come around early who suppose to have a meeting on same day with me arranged by director for investigation, HR manager is also friend of assistant manger Prior to see culprit , HR manager and myself had brief meeting outside store and then went to see culprit who admitted his offence and resigned . HR manager and culprit's friend who is training manager are very close freinds and they both work together , This makes me more worry about reprisal . My Company recently decided to close the store which is anticipated.I was asst manager in my previous employment 4 year ago before I started with this company where my manager made a technical error and we both lost jobs One day HR manager ranged me and deplomatically asked about my previous employment which never had been a problem before . I knew that training manager had been recieving gifts from my asst manager also he is the one who definetly told culprit about my meeting . Hr manager is protecting him now and playing mind games with me , Recently I have sent an email to director and asked him to investigate breach of our secrect and confidencial meeting without mentioning any names. To my surprise he sounds a bit concened why I didnt told him before and does'nt seems very happy with my email., He passed on the matter to HR manager to invetigate. I would like to know where I stand now I have family and dont want to lose job but at the same time can not tolerate dishonest people who can any time take revenge . Your opinions and advise will be appreciated .
