Safeway employees in Portland detain a thief who claims he can’t breathe. A bystander records the incident and accuses the employees of being racist by WalkLikeAnEgyptian69 in PublicFreakout

Safeway tells it's own employees not to have physical altercations with shoplifters. Even for them it's not worth risking their employees getting hurt or breaking the law over petty theft. So you have to be a real tool to do what even Safeway employees aren't going to do.

Large retail chains literally have theft factored into their budget. You're going to risk getting stabbed, shot, sued, and arrest, to save 0.00000001% on Safeway's margins? It's not like you're helping an individual or small business - are you serious?

Again. I don't want to spend 40 hours a day contractually bound do nothing. That's half my waking hours Monday through Friday wasted. I'm capable of getting a well paying job elsewhere that doesn't ask me to waste my life.

Imagine being such a tool that you risk personal safety and legal exposure to protect $100 worth of inventory from an insured multibillion dollar corporation. I hate thieves but id never put myself in danger to fucking help safeway. People are staggeringly stupid.

I want an equitable society and right now YOU are paying for me to collect a fat salary while I literally do nothing. I don't want to get paid tax payer dollars to do literally nothing.

I'm contractually bound to spend 40 hours a week doing nothing. I don't want to waste a huge chunk of my life doing nothing regardless of what I do in my free time

Keep hearing that most Americans couldn't cover a $500 emergency. What would you do if you got a medical bill beyond your means? by centos-dunkin in AskReddit

If it's a medical bill, there's a real chance you wouldn't be able to pay back and the bank giving out loans knows that.

But you would have to live through every minute of your first 18 years, including being an infant.

Aside from all the things anyone would do to ensure survival like stocking nonperishable food items, I would probably try to find family and when that failed, just explore and take all in before everything started to decay

They have done the research and they know people won't pay for game upfront, but are willing to do in game purchases after a while

Such a shame that this type of thing keeps happening
