I imagine this was a field trip or something like that and it has been evolving to be more rage inducing since that picture was taken.

Reminds me of the story about a school field trip to a cotton farm and they got the kids to go out in the fields to pick cotton and at the end of the day they didn't get to keep the cotton they picked, the farm kept it.

I'm also thinking this is the case, especially since the kid's hat still has a tag on it. I imagine that would be a gift shop purchase.

He has to return it each shift otherwise they take it out of his paycheck.

I don't think that is the price tag. It looks to be the tag on the hat with what materials it is made of and washing instructions.
