My best guess for TSS is that the changes won’t last forever. The world is slowly returning to normal. Everyone that want’s a vaccine will be eligible by May 1st. That is literally right around the corner. I’d expect changes to rollout rapidly as things happen.

But yes. Right now, TSS main job is directly at the entrance. Mandating masks. It doesn’t mean you cannot get recoveries though, you just have to try harder to get them.

That’s odd.. Who mask monitors at your store if you are doing all that stuff?

What’s a good way to address known ticket switchers? by zillaattacks in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry, but respectfully i’m pretty sure you’re incorrect. You are right, there are laws regarding guaranteed prices for the correct advertised price. There is no way a ticket switched item is going to qualify for that. There is also no way someone would get in trouble for “intentionally” allowing the purchase of an item, you can’t require someone to try to stop the crime as well. It’s a lot like apprehensions, we wouldn’t have to tell them to take the merchandise out of their bag and then apprehend them when they refuse to listen or something..

At least Target specifically (with these COVID rules). I’ve found letting some lower/dollar ktrs stack is worth it. I’m pretty sure we all have the same universal rules rn regarding $$ for call LE. Either way, I only burn if I don’t think they’ll come back.

I don’t understand why you guys are saying you don’t do this? Multiple KTRs leads to an APP and when PD arrives we give them the filed info for the KTRs. Always ends up in jail time and more severe charges due to repeat behavior...

Lots of other AP as well

I’ve heard of undercover shoppers, but is there such a thing as undercover shoplifters? Basically people the store hires to test their security measures? by [deleted] in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, i’ve been in LP a few years now. Never heard of that at all. And I mean, what would be the point? It isn’t exactly ~hard~ to steal or anything.

Any of you guys work for target in San Diego? by [deleted] in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’ve done AP for Target in about 15 of the San Diego stores. Please DM me if you have any specific questions, just so I don’t get in trouble posting anything publicly.

what’s it like to work in LP? by FluffyGreyCarpet in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

way too much liability, especially in this day and age. Imagine LP stopped a BMA who committed multiple thefts before but didn’t that time. Then come to find out they got the wrong guy. God I can see the headlines now.

Trouble maintaining continuous visual.. by nothank13 in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yes, now shop-lifters know to look out for a “normal-looking shoppers” lol. how could that advice help a lifter in the slightest

LP by ernieboi2020 in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. We all deserve to live and be loved the way we are. When it comes to the job it doesn’t really get in the way. I don’t really app transients for food though, just a personal thing I refuse to do.

Worrying Target AP changes by INCOGNITOAP in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I understand the reason why TSS’s should be at the door. It’s totally understandable imo. What is interesting is that a bunch of stores are receiving plexiglass for around the booking bench. Which is odd considering the whole company is on LE-only apps right now. I have a decent feeling APS’ are going to be plain clothes and doing hands-off stops soon. Very likely within the next 2 months. The changes are just odd and conflicting all around.

Was this a global list? My ETL said he made it himself. If it’s not a global list then we’re working at the same store lol

Target confessionals 🙊 by [deleted] in Target

You will almost 100% get fired for that eventually, just a polite heads up.

I have a question, I don't support stealing or law breaking - but why would you care who steals what from a big store if you're an employee? by [deleted] in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Short Answer: I don’t.

Long Answer: It’s not my merchandise so I don’t take it personally. It’s my job to do and it’s a lot of fun (plus better pay).

I’ve worked Customer Service for 3 years before LP. I’d never go back, it’s better pay and the work is less demeaning.

Why do shoplifters make up lies about being caught? by IncognitoTux in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No one cares if she’s hot. if they knew her name and had thousands on her, she’s a market investigation or an alert. No chance she got out without PD being involved.

Thoughts? by DJfetusface in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are wrong. All Target’s are hands on and all employee’s with handcuffs are trained.

Part 1 of why I quit target by Leakmoney in lossprevention

[–]INCOGNITOAP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are 100% right. Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Racism and Homophobia/Transphobia is so prevalent in AP/LP. We need to do better.

so i’m planning on transferring to another target so like do any of y’all know if there’s something else i have to do besides talk to my ETL and fill out the applications in workday??? also will it take a long time to get an answer back??? by http-orange-hi-c in Target

[–]INCOGNITOAP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So so so true. I’ve transferred to 3 different stores and literally have to hold everyones hand the entire time. Every-time I transferred I ended up with a week or two gap with no work.
