These employees will steal cash sales, steal inventory and are prone to serving friends your drinks and food without charging them. Left unchecked, this behavior can spread and quickly have a devastating effect on your bottom line. The more people you employ, the greater the risk.

One case about Restaurant & Bar Investigations:

One of my good clients came to me several years ago all teary-eyed and upset. She said she thoughtrestaurant_2 her husband was cheating. When he said he was working late she had called twice and he wasn't there. Then one of her other friends saw him having a drink in one of the Los Angeles Restaurant & Bar with another woman. My client found a charge on his American Express for a reservation for two the following Saturday in a very ritzy Los Angeles Restaurant & Bar. I told her to stay calm and although things looked a little suspicious to calmly just ask him what the charge on the American Express was all about. Well, the best of it got to her and she fiercely attacked him verbally about the Los Angeles Restaurant & Bar reservation for two, him being with a woman and getting phone calls where someone hung up. She called him every name under the sun. His face was crushed which she assumed meant he had been caught cheating. It turned out, that indeed he was seeing other women, but what she didn't know was she'd forgotten it was her 40th birthday and the Los Angeles Restaurant & Bar reservation was for her, and he was setting up a huge birthday party for her with the help of some of his staff members (one, his secretary.) He had also bought her a $10,000 diamond ring because when they got married he couldn't afford to buy her a diamond engagement ring (thus, not working overtime when he said he would be.) Did she feel foolish? You bet! Of course this is a rare case, but you just never know.

Follow him! That's the only way you are going to get the truth. Your spouse or partner isn't any more cautious than most cheaters.
