At this point, why even have cash registers? If these stupid companies just want to encourage hoodlums from ransacking their stores and they want nobody to do anything about it, then have at it, hoss.
I was at Lowes the other day and the lady on the register was commenting that next week store inventory was coming up. She made a crack that the folks who use the “five finger discount” normally stay away from the store during inventory.
Stores have learned, try to stop one of these goons and if they get hurt in the process, the goons sue and THE GOONS WIN. Must be cheaper to let the theft happen instead of paying big $$$ in lawsuit. DAMN LAWYERS!!!!!
