'My boss wanted me to train my replacement, but I didn't work there anymore': 16-year-old employee gets back at retail boss who unfairly suspended them

Many stores have cameras to keep an eye on their employees, but their workplace's surveillance system totally failed this grocery store worker. 

You'd think if your boss falsely accused you of stealing, the workplace cameras would be enough to exonerate you of any wrongdoing. After all, the bosses want to protect their precious merchandise from thieving customers and employees alike. They'll often position the cameras above the cash register tills and in corners where the camera has a great view of everything going on in the nearby vicinity. Customers are known to pilfer small items, but this manager accused his employee of stealing something that was both rather bulky and pretty cheap (not really worth stealing in the first place!). 

For u/xgnexistence, being surveilled didn't help their case at all. Their grocery store boss decided to accuse them of stealing, but he went about it all in the wrong order. He probably should've had this employee train their replacement before suspending them… keep reading below to see if this boss learned his lesson and how this clever teen employee got the last laugh.
