Target announced they were closing stores in SF. I've lived here for 10 years and I've never even knew they had Targets there. The Last Call posted:I'm glad to hear it. https://ritholtz.com/2023/12/retail-lobby-we-lied-about-organized-theft/ Not sure who the guy is but he cites sources. ----- quote:“The main lobbying group for U.S. retailers retracted its claim that “organized retail crime” accounted for nearly half of all inventory losses in 2021 after finding that incorrect data was used for its analysis.” - Reuters quote:After six months of relentless propaganda on crime, the NRF had to edit the claim that “nearly half” of inventory losses were organized crime.

I was shopping at K-Mart once and got in line at the only working register, the first person finished paying and left and then the little old lady in front of me, who only had a giant thing of fabric softener in her cart, pushed right past the cashier and straight out the door without paying. The cashier gave a half hearted "Hey..." and we both watched the lady, who didn't look a day less then 80, go. Anyway K-Mart went out of business because of a crooked libertarian venture capitalist

The Last Call posted:There's a depressing number of vids out there of people recording others filling up bags or carts with small or expensive things and walking straight out the door. In a few of these vids random shoppers try to stop them. Otherwise the person goes to their car or whatever and drives off. Won’t someone think of the poor corporation Target closed three stores in the Seattle metro, those “marketplace” Targets that never had poo poo in stock after blaming it on theft Corn Glizzy fucked around with this message at 01:53 on Jan 11, 2024 |

The rise in retail theft is directly proportional to the amount of money higher ups made by cutting back on retail staff. It's a real case of "why are we paying for this umbrella when we're not getting wet?"

You can see a bunch of vids of people smash grabbing in SF. But, as far as I know it's not every second of every day in every city like some media outlets would want you to believe. Like during the BLM protests, my dad legit thinks all the cities were burned to the ground. He even called and asked how my city was and just gave a simple "huh??" when I told him nothing other than a white chick from 2 cities over smashed a window and stole jewelry and she got caught.

I think stealing is bad but people have been stealing poo poo since stores were invented, the only difference is that now people have smartphones that allow you to feel like you're there in the moment Trump:  Also here's a big surprise for tonight!!!:

InsertPotPun posted:i'll find some articles but, coincidently, codey's showdy put out an episode about it just a few hours ago! Strong Sauce posted:Target announced they were closing stores in SF. Thanks for the sources, for awhile there so many articles were coming out about it before Christmas. The one about Target being the one often dominating, that and a rise in vids about blantant theft going on certainly did paint a bad image of things. Mostly the state of things for common people which.... Corn Glizzy posted:Won’t someone think of the poor corporation .....tells us how horrible things were getting for regular people. No one gives a gently caress about the corporations. There is plenty stories of normal every day people however struggling. You know, food banks talk about it, people with families talking about how they're struggling to afford food or medicine even. Corporations seem to be making more and more money than ever and yet that is not being shown in every day society with people. They are enduring hard times and it speaks of how badly things have been hosed up that the richer get richer and the poorer get poorer and the middle class is shrinking. poo poo really needs to change is the point.

Three Olives posted:Look, gently caress her, but if Target is going to constantly bitch about people stealing knowing that it plays right into the message that Republicans want to broadcast, that crime is out of control under Biden and leadership of liberal cities (It's not and Target has settled several lawsuits over wage theft) HIRE SOME GODDAMN CHECKERS! Yeah but checkers aren't going to do poo poo and are often instructed to not do poo poo, and aren't inclined to do poo poo anyways, because they don't have the authority to do anything, and they aren't paid to get verbally or physically assaulted by someone shoplifting.

I will also add, I'm guessing there is conservatively thousands of dollars of items that I have gotten home and realized I was charged for but the check/bagger failed to load them into my cart or I later discovered the packaging was damaged and they were stale or something. Also, fun story, one time I bought a USB Wi-Fi adaptor at Walmart and some ground beef, I had plans for dinner so I decided just to go back for the ground beef. I think the beef was like $13 and the USB adaptor was like $40. I call them and they are just like, we found it, go to customer service and they will give it back to you. "So I go back and they tell me to go over to a corner to wait. I'm there for like 15 minutes and about to just walk out and all of a sudden I am confronted by the store manager and multiple security people and the store manager is like "Sir, we take theft very seriously. We have video of you putting it in your cart, I need you to sign this form acknowledging that you are no longer welcome in Walmart and that if you enter the store we will prosecute you for trespassing. If you don't sign the form we will be calling the police." I'm like, WTF? You can't be serious, I assure you I did not put it in my cart, I am 100% sure, I bought like 7 items, I swear to god, unless I had a stroke or a mental episode, I did not put this into my cart. And they told me on the phone that they found it!" "Sir, I will repeat what I said, we have video of you putting it in your cart, you are no longer welcome in Walmart, I need you to sign this form or we will call the police" "This is insane! Show me the video, why would I go to this much effort to steal like $13 dollars of ground beef, I just spent like $90!"  "Beef?" *conference*"Please wait here." "Sir, I am so sorry, we reviewed the tape again and you did in fact not get your beef, the customer service woman accidentally highlighted USB WiFi that was right below the beef, please accept our apology and this $50 gift card"

no it was not justified because they reduced the amount of damages a bunch of times and she only got like half a million, a just lawsuit would have seen her take their brand away or something
