I used to give my 50% staff employee discount to parents during back to school season
Did you get in trouble?
Someone told me I was wrong and that I should not give parents that discount and that only people who were 55 and over got special discounts.
It is nice to give your discount to people who need it, but It is wrong to seal from your company if it's not allowed. You could get fired if caught.
It's only one employee who got mad at me.
But that employee will tell the manager and they would be mad too, so you should stop doing this before it becomes an issue.
