We have some kids that steal Yu-gi-oh cards. The other day one of them (pretty sure) grabs a pack and walks over into the corner of the Game Rush. I follow him over and sit on the counter and stare at him and his friend (accomplice? trainee?). Noticing me staring at them they start to ask me to find stuff in other areas.
"Hey, do you have Need..." "Nope." Surprisingly he put the cards back and left without purchasing anything. |

And what can you do when they do? Jump on there ass and get sued or fired. They say don't even follow them out of the store anymore. OPEN SEASON for a thief it is.

“Boss, I think those kids might be stealing something.”
“Okay, well keep an eye on them,” he instructed. “What do I do if I see them take something?” “Well, you can’t accuse them,” he replied. I can’t what? “Why not?” “If they’re not actually stealing, they could sue you for that.” “But if they are actually stealing, I still can’t do anything?” “No,” he answered. “Then what can I do?” “You do your best to keep them in the store, and call security if you’re absolutely sure they took something.” “And then they’ll do something about it?” “Well,” my boss’s face grimaced again, “no, actually. They’re not really police officers, so they’d have to give them the chance to stay until the real cops get there.” “But they couldn’t force them to stay?” “No, they’d have to tell them that they called the cops, but they couldn’t keep them there.” “So basically what you’re telling me is to prevent shrink, we keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t, but if we see something, we can do almost nothing because people’s feelings are more important, even if they actually did commit said crime of which they were accused.” “No no,” the boss replied, “you can call security.” “Who, in turn, will do nothing..” “They’ll call the cops.” “But they can’t keep them there.” “No, they can’t.” “So what’s the point?” I asked. “To do your best to prevent shrink, but not to put yourself in danger in doing so.” “Or just to save the company from potential lawsuits,” I murmured under my breath. “What did you say?” “I said I’ll keep an eye on those youths.”

See, that's what really pisses me off - we can't do a damn thing when someone steals something. We had this one guy come in, grab a bunch of previously played games, and run out of the store and hop in a car. I got the license plate number and had a description of the guy, but my ASM said we couldn't do anything, not even call the cops. What a bunch of bullshit.

I don't see why we can't execute them if we catch them in the act...
Or at least chase them down the street with a chainsaw. It just isn't fair!

Youre probably right
Most theft is internal anyway.

Sorry, it is against policy to have a gun or chainsaw in the store. Although you can be creative and use one of the bars of your cart.
