If they're food places, that's either because the food takes longer than ten minutes, or because it'd been slow and they'd started packing up, or they were lying because they wanted to go home on time. Almost nothing more annoying than someone coming right at the end of your shift to order food.
Stores should pay employees 30 minutes after closing time, or whatever is a realistic time it may take to serve the last client and close everything.
We do that. But at some point, it has to stop. We can't just say "one last client" when new ones come in right after the previous leaves, and you don't want to be unfair. And cleaning takes HOURS. Even in a small fast food restaurant. You need to strategically close things down, preferably things we're out of anyway.
They do!
One was a used video game shop, the other a bike shop. I try not to get food near closing unless it's fast food.
Well, good lad!
