I was banned from Walmart until I was 18 because of shoplifting. So it does happen. But my shoplifting was on the "have to do it every day just to eat" level so ya they probably don't give a poo poo if you're some disaffected suburban gently caress snatching the occasional pound puppy for kicks.

my mom worked there back in the late 80s/early 90s and she had to try and bust shoplifters, so they definitely cared more at one time.

Stymie posted:fun fact: walmart doesn't stop or even deter shoplifters because they've done studies and found out people who shoplift from walmart still shop at walmart so unless they get really ambitious with the shoplifting walmart still comes out ahead in terms of profit ok but what if you just walk out with an entire shopping cart full of poo poo because there's only ever one cashier open and the line is like a mile long

the target near me has self checkouts that lock themselves down if you try to remove anything you scanned or other things that I guess they believe self-checkout thieves would do, so then it ends up being faster to check out your stuff again on a fresh machine than to find someone to unfreeze the old one

His symptoms include headaches and depression. https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Settlement-Reached-in-Shoplifter-Frys-Electronics-Lawsuit-195398511.html this happened after i left so i have a feeling they aren't being so aggressive anymore

I take AC Transit's transbay buses to SF from Oakland (hands down best public transportation in the Bay Area), and my favorite lol in recent memory was a Tesla S driver who was pulled over by a motorcycle CHP at the SF-side bay bridge entrance because he was using the bus-only lane, which is usually totally wide open except for buses and the occasional taxi, to try to get around the standard clusterfuck that is bay bridge traffic at rush hour.

kinda sad they shut down the shoplifting reddit, it was pretty funny i like the guys that would steal from target and think they're getting away with something until one day they steal something that puts them over the threshold into felony territory and the cops immediately are at the dude's house

If you are ever in Nagoya, I recommend stopping by. If you ever are on a trip down to Osaka from Tokyo, I recommend going to ramen alley in the Nagoya train station.

friends who recently used to work at Best Buy in NYC let me know that there is a constant tension between the merchandising team who wants to put the most popular TVs right by the door (and boxed units next to them since they have almost zero back of house space), and the loss prevention team who has to constantly deal with people walking in off the street, grabbing a goddamn 55” TV, and walking immediately out of the store
