    Why I love retail

    Tonight at work a customer thought another customer was shoplifting and chased him down in the parking lot and beat the shit out of him. Sad part is he may not have shoplifted at all. He had two loose hp notebook batteries, one had a best buy sticker on it, so yea, i smell a lawsuit coming. Time to stock up on some popcorn at work.

    I'll expect some security camera footage of this sometime later.

    i saw the video, can't see much outside of the takedown. was fairly deep in the parking lot, and you see like 50 customers all run towards the melee.

    Lmao, that sounds kind of interesting. I work at Macy's so I get to see some weird shit on the camera footage from earlier in the day when I do overnight stuff.

    I doubt the person would have a case against your store unless your security did nothing to stop the beating.

    they didn't for the obvious reason of there not paid enough to try to tackle some cracked out guy whose going vigilante on people, no clue if they have a weapon or not, so they don't like us getting involved.

    I know regular employees are told not to get involved but usually security is told to intervene. If they failed to your store is going to get sued.

    got a bit of an update today. The guy did try stealing a laptop battery from us, we found the empty packaging today. Also the guy who beat the shit out of the shoplifter (he ran away so we don't even have a name) wants to press charges against him.
