Retail Theft Impact on Purchased Goods

[BuzzH]

Pay me a low-average CEO salary, and I will provide every self-checkout employee with a shiny aluminum bat and give them lessons on how to swing for the shins...

Thats too easy, obviously you're not ceo material.

it is middle management material though. Nothing screams middle management like asking someone to take a bat to a gunfight, while also giving them less than OSHA certified training on the bat.

For cheetos and a yoohoo.

Any CEO would delegate that shit to a middle manager.

Perhaps there is no impact on price because they don't need to hire as many people with self checkout. Although, in my experience, prices don't go down for any reason, including using less labor. Perhaps the real issue is corporate greed, but I understand we can't go after them because they have a certain lifestyle to maintain.

Yeah, so...

I'm gonna need you to stop a methed up hobo with a .22 from stealing these Mickeys Big Mouths. Oh, and you get a pizza party next week when you're off-shift. Wear your uniform though.

And corporate denied your raise.

You know there is so much truth to that it's scarey.

A good friend of mine worked on the North Slope in the oil fields. One year the company gave them a really nice thing for the record profits they had.

Keep in mind where they're working...the company gave them a 24 hour a day self-serve ice cream maker in the break room for all their hard work. I guess it beats an ice machine.

You just can't make this shit up.

Whoever made that decision, clearly worth their CEO Pay.

1. Vote with your wallet. If you can find sellers that actively resist theft, give them the $ you refuse to spend @ WALk-out-for-free Mart. This may be one reason for the growth of online shopping.

2. A 47 tariff on resale of stolen merch.

No, it is the workers who are at fault for everything. If you won't stop Karl the snake guy from lifting a pack of purple wraps, then do you even America?
