I've been stewing on this for a week and reluctant to post on here, but here it goes.
To not get too complicated several years ago I was instructed on how to enter non stock items on the computer (bearings in this case) .
I've done it as instructed for years without issue.
Recently there was a bearing I entered and the purchasing agent and part owner ordered for a customer. I nor the customer requested it be special ordered.
I just wanted it to be known we were getting sales hits on this item.
The customer ordered elsewhere and no longer needs the bearings.
Apparently from talking with my coworkers the way I've been doing it is incorrect.
I go to the office once a year and I'm out of the loop.
Apparently there has been a change that I wasn't informed of.
Long story short the afore mentioned bearings were billed to my account.
I'm on the hook for a 1050.00 worth of bearings.
Can my employer legally do that ?
I have tried to explain that I was unaware of the change, but it fell on deaf ears.
Am I in the wrong ?
