7 Eleven Hires Creeps and Perverts? Well Yes!

No doubt the tight labor market makes the hiring process difficult particularly in the service industry. But when the problem be comes criminal the fault is always due to poor management and lack of supervision.

The 7 Eleven at Piper Station is a prime example of absentee management. The place is a total mess and has been that way for years. 

And then there's this from a South Charlotte parent:

Around 5 o’clock Saturday May 14, 2022 our 19 year old daughter went into the store to get some snacks.  

She waited at the counter for approximately 2 minutes and looked around the store to see if someone was working.  It was at that time she witnessed the cashier completely exposed and pleasuring himself.  

A line had formed behind her.

The man saw that she saw him, apologized and continued to check her and the other customers out.  

The man was black, with a red marvel t shirt and black sweatpants looking to be in his 20’s.  I immediately called the police and went to the gas station. I walked into the store to verify he was the one that was still working. He had put on a 7-11 black jacket that was fully unzipped revealing the marvel t shirt.  

My daughter and I left the parking lot and parked at the hotel next door waiting for the police to arrive  We were positioned in view of the front entrance.  At 6:15 pm the police arrived and asked for my daughter to identify the man as they escorted her past the front doors. 

By this time the gentlemen behind the counter was a different man (whom we had seen walking the perimeter of the store while we were waiting). He spoke to the police and said he had been the only one working at the store since 2 o’clock.

We did not see the man who had exposed himself leave through the front of the store, so either he was still inside or went out the back.  

Please be aware and tell your children/friends/family to avoid this gas station.  

A police report has been filed and hopefully they will review the cameras in and outside the store to identify this sick individual.  CMPD report number 20220514170800

No word of any arrest. The girl gets props continuing to stand in line. 

CP reached out to 7 Eleven corporate so far nothing but crickets.

This may just be a local thing but the tight market shouldn't mean hiring perverts. This seems to be in desperation. Also gives ironic meaning to the slogan "Home of the Big Gulp!".

Sign from last July 

Most people only buy gas there, and only when on fumes since it is the highest priced Exxon in South Charlotte. Inside sale are supported by landscape laborers and construction crews.

The property is in sad repair. The grass is cut once a month and the landscaping leaves much to be desired. The dead trees are a nice touch. They've been dead or dying for years.
