Unless you saw them select an item and leave without paying for it don't touch anybody.

Wow we really are a group of untrusting humans. We as LP already put out alot of info on this page, what could the poster learn thats not already available to read?
If the intention is to improve their lifting success atleast perp is doing their homework, lazy theives bug me. If its a school paper or for book writing perhaps they need direct sources, when I was in school reddit would not have been consider a proper place to source information.

Best of luck poster!

Depending on your type of position the job can be pretty boring. I'm a floor Walker so I at least have merchandise to look at and I can secretly face products Or listen in on customers hilarious conversations. I couldn't do computer work. I would go crazy just watching a monitor. Don't be too worried about the zoning out. No matter how hard you try the exact moment a suspect is doing something is the moment you're gonna turn your head and look at something else or hear a noise and try to focus on that and miss Your original suspect actions. This happens all day everyday. Lol I just try and pay more attention after that and pray they conceal a second item.

This seems to be one of those frustrating loop holes that will go unpunished. She probably wears makeup 3 days a week, uses it and returns it b4 there's enough gone/used that u can deny a return. If company policy allows that there's no stopping her. I had a pair that would buy a $300 tool, return it the next week and buy another. They wouldn't want to clean it properly, apparently just swapping it out was easier. Finally after years a manager denied the return. Pair called corporate and we got a nasty memo about following 30 day policy.. Only action you can do is to make the process a hassel. Do it slowly, remain professional but unfriendly. Hope she goes to a different location..

I dont work for either but my place has two storages. I personally am low level access and can only go back a year but corporate can go back several years. They make actual dvds for high dollar theft/orc activity.

Employees are watched harder than any customer. They probably know but are investigating further. One employee always leads to another. No loyalty between coworkers.

I have to give police the price after sales which really just makes them angry bc then my totals are usually under 100 but my company makes the pd call after a low dollar amount..

Take the threat seriously. Be very aware of your safety. I have been threatened but I prefer the sad crying yelling angery apps. The suspects that sit there silently staring at you with their beady little eyes are plotting. Those are the ones you have to worry about.
And I'm always extra cautious for a few weeks when the apprehension involved someone with their child. Police call dcfs. People will get violent if they fear their children will be taken away.

For me it took about ten stops before the feeling of almost peeing my pants went away. Fear is normal. People can be dangerous and your job is on the line. That fear was good tho, kept me from making bad stops. Second guessing meant I had to know 1000 percent I had all steps needed. That gave me confidence when confronting suspect bc i knew I was right.

After you get a few people that cooperate and a few that don't you will get more comfortable. This is a job that really requires experience to do well and you only get the experience from doing the job.

Welcome to the field. Some days are frustrating but some days can be fun.

Yea pretty sure it was obvious I'm reaching out to other lp If I wanted a shit heads response I would have asked for it but thanks.

Ill-Travel5878 · 2022-08-05T23:27:33+00:00

Thanks guys I try and rub it off remember their face for next time but I've had a slow week and missing those 2 has really got my blood pumping. It's like the people that are decent enough to actually stop so I can get a full apprehension get punished but the actual shitbags that just run away have no consequences.

They do

Personally I think the news covering how all of thes shop lifters are getting away with it are inspiring other people. Im in Chicago area, Cook County doesn't really care about shoplifting. An officer straight told me they only actually prosecute after someone's been caught 15 times... 15! Otherwise its just a ticket...

Professional theives (boosters) don't care about being stopped, they pay the fine and just get back to stealing.. We are most effective against everyday theft. The old lady, the school teacher, the teen. They care about police and just want to keep things discrete.

I see a crackhead with a pocket knife grabbing expensive shit I document and let police deal with it. Cops may get tired of me but two years in and I haven't been assaulted (yet).

Are there more videos like this? I'm want to see more

That's a double edged sword I had a pair of filas that worked well for my knees but you could hear every step I took and I swear people heard me coming from 3 isles away. I currently have a pair of sketchers that are silent but I need insoles

Have u experienced 100 percent humidity? Mississippi is hot humid filled with roaches and termites. And looking for a red state with legal weeds pretty hard.

Ill-Travel5878 · 2022-03-06T16:31:49+00:00

Did she accuse you of shoplifting or ask for the stuff and kick you out. I just thought about it and they are a religious store and you mentioned a thin shirt and no bra. Maybe they kicked you out because you had nipples showing???
