UNEXPECTED ITEM IN THE BAGGING AREA PLEASE WAIT FOR ASSISTANCE

>>13212831
No, I don't steal. I'm not that poor that I need to steal a couple of euros amount of food.

TIP TO ANYONE THAT SKIMS ITEMS IN SELF CHECKOUT:
They know. The cameras overseeing the scanners can see what you did and didn't fully scan.
They are waiting for you to steal a certain amount before they catch you so that they can push a bigger charge on you.

No because I have money.

>>13212854
But it is still possible to have some items in your jacket or whatever. Also keeping a database of people stealing seems unlikely, at least for large stores

>>13212869
Keep thinking that, clearly you've never talked to anyone who works in security. They love fucking you over harder if they can

>>13212854
it is illegal for them to store any personal data without the persons approval, so they cant "stack up charges" but have to immediately report to the police if they want to do so, otherwhise their backup of the data is illegal and gets punished harder by court than one stealing small grocery items

>>13212967
This

>>13212831
No but I've had trips where I threw down so many fat coupons it triggers a manager ID code or something. And they usually look it all over and nod and sigh defeatedly. It feels like winning.

>>13212831
No, I'm white.

>>13212967
You consent to being filmed when you use their store without a doubt, also pretty much everyone keeps video surveillance records for at least a year, and the bigger the company the longer they will keep them.

>>13213094
>You consent to being filmed when you use their store without a doubt
I didn't sign anything.
Neither is there any of the usual required signage for general surveillance.

>>13212831
What I don't understand about retail stores is the big expensive beeper checkpoint exit scanners. Everyone believes that the scanners go off if you don't scan the barcode but I work in retail and you can pull a whole pallette full of unscanned items through the checkpoints and they don't go off. The only things that go off is makeup, clothing with security tags, toys that have security tags stuck on them (you can visually see if they have them), and spider wraps that go over TVs. That's about it. Any other cosmetic stuff usually has a security tag in the box but that's rare. Have only ever seen it in Nair wax strips.

>>13213094
The quality of those cameras are always horrendous. You need an exact time, date, description and then you need to send it to the police for investigation. The big retail stores will never care if you repeat steal small items. But if its organised robbery of numerous items over and over again then yeah. You'll likely get caught.
I also once caught a woman trying to steal a suitcase of neck pillows, which was about $150 worth. She just looked at me and went "fuck" so I took them out and kept scanning the rest of the items. Excluding the neck pillows. I told the manager what happened and he gave me a $30 gift card but he never asked me about her appearance or anything, just what happened.
You also aren't allowed to accuse someone of stealing and you aren't allowed to chase them in or out of the store. You are better off letting them go then risking the store being sued.

Then again I guarantee Australia is a lot different to America

>>13213106
It's private property. Consent is implied. So long as surveillance is not an invasion of privacy, it's not restricted to conduct. Use of the surveillance has varying restrictions.

Try again, thief.

>>13213111
>The quality of those cameras are always horrendous.
This always gets me. I mean, high-res cameras are dime-a-dozen from the Big Rock Candy Mountain, and stores that do $3mil in revenue are using 1978-level potatoes.

>>13212967
Steal a big amount at one time, I mean. People tend to get ballsy after never getting caught.

>>13212839
Man thank fuck I haven't had these problems in maybe 5 years since Wal-Mart upgraded their self checkouts.

>>13213208
>consent is implied
ye, surely that will hold up in court kek

>>13212831
Not really but if I try to scan an item like a pack of water and it only picks up 1 bottle of water then I'm not fixing it. My time is more valuable than the fucking grocery store treats it.

>>13213106
Signs are not actually required
You don't have to sign a damn thing, that'd only be if they made camera footage with you in it available to the public
You're an idiot with no knowledge of the law

>>13213362
I does though, do you think they ever go to court without the footage? Do you think they have some magical amount of time they can save it?
If its ok to use a month from now , its ok to use a year from now

>>13213379
wrong

>>13213368
this
i dont even get paid for scanning my stuff myself
it's a fucking scam eitherway

>>13213436
>imagine Nanojobs
>scan your items in the grocerie store yourself
>get a pay for the effort

>>13212854
WE'S RIGHT SNOGGERED NOW

Theft shaming is wrong and needs to be stopped.

Niggers can't help stealing because it's a part of their DNA and who they are. White people just need to accept this fact and stop being so racist.

>>13213454
pls get into the left movement and meme this, we need some accelerationists on the otherside

I go to the search option and scan through my most expensive apples as the cheapest kinds, with my daily apple routine it adds up a lot, must be $100 saved by now.

Also scan organic bananas as normal, not such a huge save as apples, some apples are 4x others.

>>13213454
lol

>>13212831
I did while I was poor. Expensive items like ginger, garlic ect. can easily just slip under the stiff mat at the bottom of some bags, so I'd just buy a bag of rice and workers will just glance in and void the weight discrepancy. I probably stole a few thousand dollars worth of expensive ingredients.

I have never not stolen from the self-checkout aisle. The key is to put what you're planning to steal into the bag after you hit the "pay" button, as it doesn't trigger the "unexpected item" notification.

If they want to make me do their labor for them, I expect to be paid.

>>13212839
my local grocery store's checkout does this so often that they just buzz you through without even checking

>>13213510
the method that works for me is to put an item you want to steal in the top basket area of the grocery cart, then once you get to self checkout just scan everything in the main grocery cart and "forget" about the top area. i actually did this on accident the first time and didn't notice until i was looking through my receipt.

>>13212854
WASSIT SAY THEN, FARGUS?

>>13213465
janny seething lmao
confirmed as a person of color

>>13213559
based

>>13212831
No, that is nigger tier shit. Ironically the only person I know who steals from self checkout is my gf's friend who is a total roastie, a jew and has bpd. This woman literally makes 80k a year and it took her seven years to pay off a 9k dollar car at a time when she had no living expenses because she spends all her money on wanderlust bs and weed.

>>13212831
Can someone explain the Stirner meme? I don't go to /lit/ and never read Stirner. I had a bunch of his stuff as "recommended reading" in an extensive Marx class I took in grad school, so I know he's a big figure between Hegel and Marx, but that was around the time my alcoholism started kicking in so never got around to it. I never see any Kant, Nietzsche, or Wittgenstein memes, but if they existed I'd be able to explain them in depth.

>>13213907
Tl;dr the basis of the memes centered around stirner is based on his book the ego and it's own, which basically advocates for self autonomy or self anarchy, and being the master of yourself, and pretty much doing whatever the fuck you want without any restrictions based on religion or ideologies or ethics. Hence the joke in the op of the dude disregarding social norms and ethics by filling up a kfc bucket with soda.
This is a very basic explanation from someone who only really loosely knows much about stirner, but that's pretty much the joke

>>13214066
Thanks. That makes a lot of sense, but is kind of disappointingly shallow (though not really far off from the Schopenhauer memes).

>>13212831
I do it occasionally. I still have my old bank card after I got a new one so when I’m at the self-checkout I scan my non-working bank card and pretend to pay and just walk out. I have never been stopped by staff.

>>13212869
Large stores in particular have dedicated security teams whose entire job is to do shit like that

>>13213362
It absolutely does. Owners of private establishments have no duty to inform patrons, guests, visitors, etc., of routine surveillance. There are often signs indicating such, but those are only as a deterrent (that doesn't work at all).

Stop being 11.

>>13214174
so i can be filmed in a restaurants toilet and it is legal for them to keep the footage, good to know
retard

>>13214323
You're an idiot. I wrote previously that surveillance in the common area of private places is generally not restricted insofar it does not invade the patron's privacy. To wit, surveillance in toilets, changing rooms, tanning rooms, locker rooms, etc., is expressly prohibited by law.

Pedant.

>>13213111
No everyone is deathly afraid of legal repercussions in the US too, got me out of a few sticky situations before I was 21.

>buy 10 organic hass avocados
>enter them as 8 basic bitch ones
Worst case scenario “oops I must have fat fingered that haha”. The trick is to not blatantly rip the store off.

>>13213216
Video files are very big. If every camera in a walmart were higher quality there'd be terabytes of video in a single week if not a day

>>13214359
You can blatantly rip the store off, in fact the more you grab the less guilty you look walking out with it

>>13212831
Everytime I use them. I don't steal a huge portion of my stuff but if I'm buying say four packets of something I'll scan one or two and just throw them all in the bag.
>>13212839
This is the biggest problem. Look for stores that don't have the scales in the bagging area. Also the "i dont want to bag this item" button is a godsend.

>>13212831
The store is saving money by not employing people and paying less taxes overall as well. They are pocketing the difference so I take my share for doing labor for them in scanning my stuff. I figure it evens out.

Loss Prevention here,

Just want everyone to be aware that we KNOW whose stealing and we're going to call you dumb fucks out and get you arrested any time you try to steal shit.

I can see you dumb fucks a mile away, you come into the store with your nervous unwashed face and don't make eye contact. You fidget when waiting for your turn to use a checkout machine, you pretend to be on your phone when I can see you're not texting anybody.

We record EVERYTHING.
if you try to 'stash' anything and still pay by card then we even have your name and address and other personal information.

I've personally followed dozens of people to their cars and embarrassed them in front of the entire parking lot, I WILL follow you home if you try to run from me.

My job is to find you thieving fucks and ruin your day, and I get so much joy and pleasure from it I just about don't even need to be payed to do it.

And for all of you law-abiding citizens, you're welcome, I keep the store safe while the criminal elements are kept at bay.

>>13214368
Compared to the shrinkage, that's nothing. A terabyte drive's one-time cost is a fraction of what goes out the door illicitly every day.

Also: cloud

>>13214579 (et. al.)

What other crimes do you commit and rationalize with some antisocial drivel?

>>13214594
>Loss Prevention here
>I've personally followed dozens of people to their cars
>My job is to find you thieving fucks and ruin your day
Nice LARP, even with how wrong all this is.

If you steal groceries you deserve to be raped.

>>13214615
Yeah it's totally not antisocial for a corporation to force a customer to work for free with 1 or two registers open while not passing on savings and selling their information to third parties if they use any type of membership. Oh and by the way when we ask you to donate to a charity it's so that we can donate the money ourselves and get a tax reduction in your name because we have no other reason to care. You might like getting fucked by faceless strangers but I don't and figure my time is worth 5-10 bucks a go.

>>13214594
>following people to their car
Literally not how that works. If they leave the store you can't do shit and have failed your one job.
>t. bagger bitch for 6 years

Walmart still pays people for security? I figured they just let people take whatever and cut the losses from the impoverished employee base.

im an assistant manager at a supercenter walmart and usually just spend my day watching the store cameras in the back and laughing at you guys thinking you're getting away with stealing stuff then acting shocked when we stop you before you leave

and yes, we will call the police, even if what you're stealing is valued at below 10 dollars

>>13214594

can't stop laughing, tyft

>>13212831
It's incredibly satisfying knowing at least some of you retards are going to have your lives ruined over this. The only reason I ever vote is to help get the 'tough on crime' laws passed.

No, I'm not a degenerate. I did accidently steal a case of water yesterday. It was on the bottom of the cart, and I usually tell the cashier I have itband she types in a code and gives me a sticker. The cashier needed me to identify the wide variety of peppers I was buying and I got distracted and forgot to tell her. By the time I noticed I was at my car and it was cold out and I didn't feel like going back inside.

>>13214730
Too bad I know you can’t leave the store so enjoy impotently yelling at me (I bet your voice cracks and your eyes tear up too lmao) while I give you the finger and load all the free stuff into my uber.

>>13214730
lol we all know middle management retail has the highest concentration of sociopaths of any profession. You just wish you were doing that.

Because your taxes subsidize child rapists like jeffrey epstein and your walmart avocados were harvested with slave laborers whose passports are routinely stolen by hired goons who force southies at gunpoint to work without pay

>>13214833
Hence why taxes are bullshit. Move to a tax haven like me, dipshit.

>>13214833
Or actually, you know what, why don't you go move to Venezuela, kommerade? I hear they have great food there and I think you'd fit right in.

Last time I went grocery shopping I gave my wifes son a few of the sesame street fruit squeeze packs while shopping to keep him quiet. I then filled my cart with organic produce but rang them all up as normal. I had a big bag of paper towels underneath the cart that I didnt ring up. I got a little pee on the floor too if I'm being honest because I have 2 urethras.

>>13214881
Don't your type mostly want to add a P to the LGBTQIAA+++ acronym? You might want to check the script, because I don't think your kommeraden agree with your discriminatory take, bigot :^)
Again, I hear Venezuela is a lovely socialist culinary paradise.

>idiots at walmart trying to check my receipt as I walk out

Yeeaah naw, you aint law enforcement and u cant stop me for shit, I keep walking

>>13214872
Nice reply good goy. How many hours do you work for free a year for corporate benefit? If they can steal and face zero repercussions i'm going to charge them for my time. There needs to be a minimum expectation for service based industries and if they can't keep up with their customers they should be forced to give discounts.

>>13212854
Not really. I've worked in supermarkets and the staff couldn't give less of a fuck about petty shoplifters who steal groceries. Far more product gets wasted due to accidents and mismanagement than is stolen by shoplifters. The only shoplifters they actually care about are the ones walking out with expensive clothes or electronics.

>>13214809
>>13214833
>No, please, y-you don't understand, it's the CORPORATIONS who are the bad guys, I don't deserve thi-- AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Better start lifting weights now. Or getting used to being another guy's prison-gf. Either or.

>>13214858
Donald Trump and Bill Clinton both rode the lolita express. Talk up your silly celebraties all you want, but your lifestyle is a smokescreen that only exists to keep the kidfuckers cozy from peoples hungry enough to kill a billionaire with bare hands to get the fucker’s canned food stashes that cost (((money))), so that the rice farmers who packaged your shit ration quality canned food could deliberately never afford the products they worked at gunpoint for. I will feel nothing when you die alongside your rapist police officers or youe “country’s” garbage comedy figures who served your sickness on a TV dinner platter as if child rape is just another slice of your inhuman apple pie.
Friends of kidfuckers get no sympathy. At least the cucks can say they were too afraid to stick up.
But apologists and supporters are as insects. There is no value in your lazy McChildSexAbuse life. You are a pest in the way of parasites. You are only human in biology, but otherwise you are not a soul or a consciousness. You will not be buried, your dead body will be disposed of like trash and your living existence will be thoughtlessly ended with the same energy and attention someone would put into squatting a mosquito or killing a cockroach.
Pray there is no God to ask you why you chose to suck the cocks of evil when you were shown their ways in plain sight.

>Far more product gets wasted due to accidents and mismanagement
So in your mind, because they ALREADY have problems making their numbers tie due to other problems, they won't care at all about you adding to the delta with your own shoplifting?
lol.
Also even if they didn't personally care about the cost a lot of people would still do what they could to stop you just out of spite. Most people just don't like shoplifting niggers. You're insulting everyone who works there by trying to play them for idiots and steal their inventory right in front of them.

>>13214938
The best you got is some homo sex power fantasy defending the protected class of thieves when I haven't so much as raised an eyebrow ever doing it.

>I've never even been close to getting caught!
t. every convicted felon ever before they got caught.

>>13214938
You fucking retard, you don’t have to pay for shit as long as you make sure whatever you steal under any given identity at whatever given big box store does not amount to grand theft. Otherwise the company policy doesn’t waste time on the clock doing silly things like having their already overworked employees play NCIS on the security cameras in vane attempts to track down that missing pack of bubblegum Nancy Drew warned us about.
This is why yall are cucks and collaborators. You’re too pathetic to do the scary thing for the right reasons. You’d rather sit on your computer, safely masturbating to 2D girls as you fantasize about one day winning the lottery and having prepubescent sex slaves of your own.
Cops have speeding tickets to write and crackheads to molest. Doing this for a purpose puts you above the rest. It gives you will and when your will is good you will carefully and deliberately not allow yourself to crack.

>>13215005
>I forgot
Yes anon, that's a brilliant surefire defense you got there. I'm sure no one else has ever thought to claim that.

>>13214978
You are making out as if people who work in supermarkets give a fuck. Everyone who works there just wants to get on with their shift and leave on time. The only person who might actually care is the small dicked manager trying to get a promotion but he's usually too busy micromanaging his employees to have any clue what the customers on the shopfloor are doing.

>>13215013
It's all I need. I worked with LPS when I did a stint in retail as a kid. They could barely nail people for walking out of the store with 100-300 dollars worth of shit and were lucky to get 2 people for every hundred that were hitting us multiple times a week. Even when we got them the cops would literally drive them a mile away and drop them off because it was too much of a hassle for something that would never stick and they would be back the next day. This ain't cops and robbers crime drama. It's not worth it to them.

>>13215008
>grand theft
>Otherwise the company policy doesn’t waste time on the clock
That's not store policy anywhere. At most there are store policies about not stopping someone *if you don't work in security*. No stores just sit there and let you steal as much as you want as long as it's under a thousand dollars you mongoloid.

>>13212854

>>13214999
I haven’t been on /pol/ since 2013. I’m a lefty, that place isn’t interesting to me. Kidfuckers are all over western governments and organizations of economic or spiritual authority. There is no shortage of these parasites. They’re an ideology and they molest young homosexuals to spread their psychological plague to whoever is lucky enough to lose their empathy and embrace the inhumanity of power and authority. Kidfucking is like a fungal growth, there is this mycelium of abusive ideology that is tapping into the neurology of your fellow man to make them incapable of love. To break their brain to one like insects. These followers of the abusive and abrahamic evils are not people. They are not alive. They are like weeds, growing and growing as the external stimuli pressures them to grow, but without thought, they are just a chemical process set in motion that does not think or feel, just grow until it can reproduce and do just as its DNA instructs until death and the reproduction its spawn do, and so forth.

>>13215054
No, I'm pretty sure he was just being honest. I used to work in security many years ago and I remember how good it felt to make rule breaking faggots pay. I don't think people like you can understand how that works though. It probably takes a certain kind of mentality to appreciate just how much someone can hate people who do the wrong thing.

>>13214894
You’re a fucking shill and a nigger
Does the pennies falling from hillary’s asscheeks ever really reach your hands? Or do you just live off the scraps of your higher up you wastrel dog? Kill yourself in the name of all that is right you fucking cuckolded buffoon.

>>13215083
Why are you calling an anon who called you a leftist, a leftist?

>>13215074
If you see the opportunity, it is very pure and humane to put a kidfucker down. But in the meantime, do not contribute to their hollywood idealists society. These companies and governments only exist to enable the kidfuckers, and they are not to be collaborated with. Sabotage becomes resistance when everyone does it.

>>13215076
I’m not even a shoplifter you fucking nigger, fuck off with your gay assumptions. That anon was clearly making an ironic post and you’re just such a big fucking faggot in real life that you actually think he’s serious and sympathize with him.

Because he’s tying things into politics for no reason, because he’s a political shill and a nigger.

>he fell for the "they can't follow me to my car" meme
I bet you think undercover cops have to tell you they're cops if you ask them too.

These guys are the best because you're scanning throughout the store as you go. The trick is to do a BOGO situation, since sometimes they verify the order at checkout by asking the associate to scan 10 items. You can't get super greedy, but with a large enough trip you can easily save $30-50

>>13215103
You are literally the one who brought politics into this, you complete retard. Like I said, get off /pol/ if it's fucking your head up this bad.

Because that's not true. Stores have massive overhead expenses to deal with, so it's not like as they get bigger they start to care less and less about losing money to shoplifting. Profit margins are as narrow as can be with grocery stores, like 1%. Store managers most definitely care about shoplifting. It's not all that unlikely any given store will be missing their operations goals any given month you're there. And if you're already getting fucked because of internal problems you're not going to be feeling too generous about letting a bunch of shamelessly thieving niggers make your situation even worse.

>>13215256
What the fresh fuck are you even talking about? You are arguing with an anti-statist minarchist who advocated moving to a tax haven if you've so buttblasted about living in the US. Or Venezuela, if that's more your lane. At least you admit to the schizophrenia.

>The lawful good faggots itt don’t understand that there are people who steal from big box stores and then people who steal from actual people and small stores.
Large stores still involve actual people you idiot. And not even rich actual people. There are going to be regular working class people at the large stores on the hook for meeting goals and not letting the store bleed to death from a hundred petty shoplifters without doing anything to stop them.

I don't know about that, but it's just not worth their while to press charges over a few dollars of petty theft that you can pretend was an accident. If you're a nuisance then they can ban you from the private property, which makes it really easy to call the police if you come back on the premises at all.

Then again I guarantee Australia is a lot different to America

Nah it's the same in America. Smart shoplifters know this and just run.

I've done a couple little things here and there, sometimes ring up produce as less expensive codes, sometimes even unintentionally, never made a habit out of it or done what I think would be above average stealing. The only time I have ever had a problem with store security aka Mr. Walmart Greeter was when I literally dindu nuffin and wasn't actually stealing.

>needed to buy some tires

>he refuses to let me leave the area until I paid for them at his cashier in the far corner of the store

I don't play that stupid game. If I had lost the receipt somewhere in the store, it would have been a fucking mess watching those unmotivated walmart employees try to confirm the purchase was legitimate. They can take their own time tracking down that auto worker who just clocked out or watching 30 minutes of security footage, I'm not sticking around. Nothing ever happened, I don't know if they even bothered checking, but I still go to the same store occasionally.

My mum and I used to go into walmart, get a cart full of groceries then go to some deserted isle and bag them up ourselves and walk out.

I would often walk in by myself, grab a hand full of bags and walk out. She would put them in her purse and we would walk back in.

Called it bag and go.

I worked in tesco and have seen them destroy perfectly edible and usable items. Joghurts, cream, boxes of eggs etc were thrown into a literal grinder-crusher container trashcan on wheels JUST because the container/tub was splashed or separated from 4 pack. When a multipack of joghurts was separated all of them would go into the grinder because no one bothers to print out a price tag for individual pieces, same with eggs if one or two got broken the rest was thrown into the grinder.

When the grinder is operated it is watched by a guard and camera just so the staff can't take anything. The guard also said that once entire shelves of liquor were crushed there, all of these expensive cognacs and rums and no one knew why. A relative received a box of premium Lindt chocolates from a guy that loads entire shipping containers with product intended for destruction. Some boxes may disappear when the lights go out for a few minutes. The reason for destruction is frequently not having been sold out at normal price, they will not make a discount but throw it into the grinder. It is not only food that is destroyed, good quality shoes, clothes etc are also frequently loaded.

This shit perfectly justifies thieves in my eyes even though I don't steal, fuck the supermarkets, the corporations that order destruction of good items and law that makes all of this possible

I've never stolen from a grocery store in my life. I always ride my bike to the store, so I wear a backpack to carry my things home easily. Then one day this doorman stopped me and got all abrasive and told me that I can't wear a backpack in the store anymore.

I thought this was stupid because if I wanted to steal I'd use a satchel or purse, not something sitting on my back that I can't quickly and slyly shove things inside. He was only doing his job but I stopped going there and go to a different store now, the only reason he would have taken such a tone with me is if he believed I was a criminal which I am not.

At my local supermarket they close backpacks with a cable tie when you come in. Sometime they don't do it if I tell them it's empty, so maybe it's just to avoid confusion about which items you walked in with or picked up there rather than preventing stealing.

>>13214594

I work in a shop in a small town. The alarms go off regularly to tell us that someone has just taken something illegally which still has tags on it. When I was new I used to ask if we needed to go and check on whoever just walked out but the answer was no. No one gave a shit about theft even if it was a £50 bottle of whisky. The managers don't care. My supervisor doesn't care and I don't care anymore. The worst you'll get from me is a dirty look from me if you're not white and the alarm goes off because for white people in our store it's usually an unfortunate accident and they always come back, take out their receipt and insist that we check their items because no one wants to be a thief but anyone else just walks out because they know they've stolen so they won't stop or they just keep going because they just think of it as a free item since they forgot to get it scanned.

>>13216100
They are supposed to check your receipt if something is unbagged. Why is it so hard to give them the receipt and take a few seconds not to be a retarded asshole?

>>13214594
trying too hard. make it less obvious that this is bullshit next time

>>13217984
because its not my job to let them waste my time needlessly. if i was stealing, you think im gonna stand around and let someone check? the process does nothing to prevent theft and only harasses innocent people. Say no thanks and keep walking

>>13216958
They just need to work out some sort of charity for tax breaks or a way to send another store that stuff at discount. But I understand not handing it out to employees since, unfortunately, it will lead to them trying to take everything possible. They will purposefully break the yoghurt pack or scuff a shoe and find any reason at all to get free stuff. And they'll still bitch and moan. When I worked in a dining hall at a university, we could literally eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and snacks there in unlimited portion sizes and people still bitched that they couldn't take anything home with them. And you just know that if they allowed it that people would start finding any way and any reason to set things to the side to take home.

>>13216989
I live in Vegas and see a lot of store signs saying no backpacks even in good areas. I guess it keeps niggers, homeless, crack heads, and thieving idiots from coming to the nice side of town.

>>13218017
You can just keep walking, but I don't see why a few seconds makes a difference and don't blame the usually elderly workers just trying to get by with a shitty job. It also does help prevent theft, because many people feel remorse when confronted and don't like the thought of being caught. If no one were checking receipts in stores like Walmart with self checkouts then why wouldn't most people just leave the water and toilet paper on the bottom rack of the cart unscanned? If they don't have to show someone their receipt then they don't have to feel that guilt in the moment.

>>13217984
>>13218041
Way to dodge the argument with that petty cop-out. What happens if I lose the receipt in the all the time of walking around the store? What if that auto employee just didn't give me one? It's one thing to ask for a receipt from the self check-out that's ten feet away (although I refuse that request too because fuck you), but it's another entirely to ask for a receipt from across the store that they had no vision of or contact with. They can go fuck themselves with such a lazy, retarded policy like that. I bet if you were to have lost it you would have sat there for 20 minutes like a good little cuck while they tried to make up for their own incompetence.

>>13218064
They always give you a receipt, and it would be highly unusual to lose it even in stores where they don't check the receipt. How would you return anything if you don't keep track of your receipts? Where and how would you lose it? You would put it in your wallet, pocket, or grocery bag not a black hole. And also, you've established that you can just walk out. So if you do lose it and don't want to sit around then keep walking that day.

>>13217854
In the US employees aren't supposed to fuck with them either. A lot of security companies guards aren't authorized to detain them either due to liability. The insurance they have to pay for their guards to handle shoplifting is astronomical.

>>13218078
>and it would be highly unusual to lose it even in stores where they don't check the receipt.
Most of the time the receipt is printed directly into a garbage bin, nobody wants that BPA on their hands.

>>13218094
I have never experienced that anywhere that you would want to return something or for a large purchase, especially tires. Sometimes they'll toss it out for you in a small, non-corporate coffee shop where no one wants or needs a receipt for a coffee and breakfast sandwich.

>>13218088
No security guard can do anything that a regular citizen can’t do but they are educated on everything a citizen can do.

>>13218107
Cashiers mutter an automatic "do you want the receipt?" in pretty much every store I visit.

>>13218118
Where do you live? Is it a small town? I'm in Las Vegas, and every single (local) place hands you a receipt. I cannot see how a store that checks receipts wouldn't have an employee policy that requires them to hang you the receipt.

>>13218128
I am specifically addressing the point where you said "it would be highly unusual to lose it even in stores where they don't check the receipt."
My point is that in these stores they never bother handing you a receipt in the first place.

>>13218133
I'm saying that where I live and shop that they always do hand you one. If I were buying tires and they didn't hand me a receipt I would both be very worried and ask them for one. Who the fuck buys several hundred dollars worth of tires and doesn't make sure they get a receipt?

>>13218146
I'm saying that in stores where they don't check receipt, they don't bother giving you one at all.

>>13218161
Lol I'm saying they do. Again, where do you live? I can see this in mom and pop shops where you're buying things that obviously don't get returned, because the are consumed on the spot.

>>13218192
Plenty of people, and if we're talking about Walmart then they always give a receipt. Where do you live?

I only steal something if the machine doesnt let me ring it up on the first or second try and its worth less than $5, eg single vegetable items.
Its really not worth my time sifting through menus to pay pennies for a single pepper

>>13218193
Somewhere where people actually eat their groceries, apparently. Wild.

>>13218205
I'm genuinely curious as I'm about to move to a really small town and wonder how things will be though I visited the area for a week and always got receipts including at the grocery store. It's a little odd to think of returning produce and other fresh things, but it's possible to find something wrong with it once you get home and go return it, which is also the case with packaged stuff.

>>13218112
Also they're a lot more wary of what they do because let's face it, if a guy shoves you and says fuck off, other than maybe reciprocating you won't do anything. On the other hand if a security guard does it, well maybe you think about suing the company he works for. All of a sudden his manager wants him home because he's the reason that his manager has a bullshit lawsuit on his hands.

>>13218212
In the shop I work in, if you come back later and show me a receipt and the item then yeah no problem, grab a new one that's not fucked up. Sometimes I won't even bother with the receipt if I can remember someone's face, if they come back a couple hours after I served them and show me the item I'll just grab a new one for them. Even if it's something that goes out of date very quickly, I don't mind if you return it as long as it's not your fault it's broken or whatever.

>>13218112

Small towns don't even have grocers, the farmers put their produce in a shack by the highway and you're on the honor system to pay for it.

>>13218337
It happens to be a small town in an area near enough to other small towns and enough tourism where businesses have been able to flourish, so there are 2 grocery stores and a super walmart despite a population of about 1,500. If you live in any other town in the area then you'd have just a small farmer's market by the gas station.

life hack: if you just be friendly to the sco attendant and don't freak out about them having to come over, like 70% of the time we'll just let you take whatever isn't scanning because it's faster than running it through, and most of the time keeping the line running faster is more important than verifying every single item that didn't ring right
