Today, almost two weeks after teacher appreciation week, I received several gifts cards from one of my students and her mother. After calling to check the amount on each one, it confirmed that every card has a zero balance! Apparently, the mother must think that I've done nothing for her child. FML

You shouldn't expect things from kids parents anyways. although what they did was a waste of time and annoying.

Maybe it was just a mistake? I know I've forgotten to activate gift cards for customers accidentally a few times so they could have honestly thought they were doing something nice!

Or the cashier scammed her. When I worked at Walmart, a cashier was led away by police in handcuffs because she scammed thousands of dollars by swapping the gift cards paid for by customers with empty ones. She got away with it for months.
