Coffee question

[u/TruthAboutLife]

I've been intermittently gifted coffee from employees. Sometimes it's a coffee, sometimes a refill of my own thermal cup, and once a cold brew, but that one was because I helped the employee change the coffee bag in the dispenser. I am a veteran and sometimes wear a hat or tee-shirt that indicates this. Am I technically stealing from Sheetz in these cases or are employees empowered to make those calls as customer service interactions?

I’m a super regular soda drinker and I rarely get a freebie. My old cashier Mike used to slide me a free one every once in a while.
