Seth is a delivery driver for Pizza Shack. One day while on a delivery, Seth decides to stop by his girlfriend's house on the way back to work.

Give typed explanation Kawal, a young mother with three small children, had worked at the counter of a Tim Hortons store for three years. One day, the manager observed Kawal giving a Timbit donut to a crying child who came into the store with their parents. When the manager of the store confronted Kawal about giving a donut away for free, Kawal immediately admitted to giving the donut away to the customer without paying for it. She was aware that this was against the employer’s policy, but she had been busy at the time and did not go to her purse to get the $1.50 to pay for the donut at that time.
