The 2 Male Employees just standing there with their fingers up their BUTTS and doing absolutely NOTHING really Pisses me off. That was absolutely RIDICULOUS. Bear Spray or not, DO SOMETHING IDIOTS.
Absolutely ..one well placed round will stop this!
As a manager for a large retail company I wish we could do something. The police don’t do anything unless it’s something huge and if we try and stop them then we end up getting charged with things. Unlawful detention, wrongful accusations etc. I have been physically assaulted over a belly button ring and it’s sad. One of our stores was just robbed at gunpoint the other day and we are literally told to just give them what they want and not risk getting hurt. I wish shoplifting was a crime even if it a $3 bottle of Tylenol, this $750 or less is not a crime is whats BS!
Nowadays retail stores are firing employees for interfering with the thrives. They are just taking the loss and passing it on to the customers. It’s the sign of our times we now live in making it easier for this to happen. And the thieves know it.
This awful woman has also been involved in other crimes with the guy who killed the beloved Tuba Man years ago. Lock her up FOREVER.
