Scanman1, I once had a Five Guys were a female went behind the counter. She had on a plain shirt and torn jeans. Apparently she was a manager because no one challenged her and she knew everyone. She appeared to do a reading on the register. I had just finished a video shop and hadn't changed my shirt, so I turned my recorder on and got most of it on tape. When I was challenged as to what I reported, I suggested that the restaurant pull the video. I got the reply that the security system was out of order. At that point, I replied, "No problem, I have it on video." I sent the MSC a DVD and was paid. I was also told to never video record a shop again. Well, I'm sorry but if I have the evidence, then I'm going to submit it if it will help make my case to be paid.
