Read what I posted, please.
The kid grabbed the clipboard - boorish.
The Greeter went inside and grabbed the clipboard and at the same time shoved the kid into the pylon. The greeter excalated the situation.
At that point, the kid lashed out.
At best both at fault. You see what you want to see, I see what I see.
Good thing it is on video, someone else will make the call.
I suspect the greeter will be looking for a new job shortly.
Second point -asked the Mrs to look.
She saw the Greeter as very aggresive and escalated the situation by following the kid inside, and attacking the kid. BTW, it looks like the greeter threw the first punch....
Shame the video is not better quality.
The kid? Where did you get the idea it was a kid. The article refers to him as a man. Your take on this astounds me.
Did the marine push the man, or did the man back away because he didn’t want to give up the clipboard? I still marvel at your ability to interpret this in the most favorable light for the person who took the clipboard. You find the marine at fault, and the man just being taken advantage of at that point.
What more can I say? Perhaps the marine should have said, “Hey... like I’m sorry I challenged you... can I please have my clipboard back? Please forgive me will ya. I was so out of line to challenge you once the alarm went off.” Good grief.
Once the man took the clipboard, he was at fault. Once he accosted the employee rather than comply, he was the guilty party.
What do you think the job of the greeter is, if an alarm goes off when a person exits? Of course the guy is going to ask the customer to take a look. Big deal. One short look in the bag checked against the receipt and the customer would be on his way.
Instead he become physical. And taking that clipboard was assault. You cannot touch another person, period.
