I’ve yet to be convinced that there is a shoplifting crisis. and I’m yet to be convinced that there is an immigration crisis. i think we’re being trained to be hateful and fearful
Trained by the rich, to hate anyone but the rich.
to hate our neighbours, to be scared to go outside, and to not trust one another. we’re being trained to hate everything about ourselves that we once loved
No society will have a shoplifting cirsis if all people have good, shelter, healthcare, and education. Sure shoplifing will always be around but it its a crises then there is something wrong.
Just do what the americans do. Make homelessness illegal, then you can arrest them and put them into the for-profit prisons to become slave labor.
Some American stores just put glass between the customers and basic, inexpensive products with a buzzer to call an attendant… Let me tell ya, that was a uh, choice…
Employees hate them because they didn’t hire a dedicated unlocker because that’d cut into their record profits. Instead, they just rely on employees to stop what their doing and unlock the various locked up products around the store.
The average customer also hates this because we have to wait on somebody to unlock a low priced item as stupid as laundry detergent or eye drops… We are talking products less than $10 and various things locked up in different places in the store so depending on what you’re wanting, you might be waiting a while. Average waist time during busy hours: 5-10 minutes per unlock.
The result of course is many customers including myself just stop buying the locked up products at the stores that do this.
Meanwhile, companies the implemented this stupid idea are “baffled” as to why the sales of these products have taken a significant hit…
