User ID: 76760905 United States 06/30/2020 01:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No way! I’m thinking of starting to use the self checkout because when we went to the store last night they stole from us! Charged for 2 cherry juices ($5 each) when we only got 1. I’m not gonna steal from them but they sure as hell have no problem stealing from me!!! Quoting: Miss Bunny Swan I like the self checkout lines because you can make sure all the items you bought end up in a bag. I've lost lots of $$ over the years by baggers not putting what I bought in a bag. Modeling reality |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76955367 United States 06/30/2020 01:22 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You do know they pretty much know every time you do that. They build a case before they bust you. Quoting: Seeingstars they don't even fucking care! the shrink from theft will always be less than what it costs to hire a full time cashier. its like an acceptable loss of inventory. Y'all don't understand how this works. Yeah they don't come running after you or call the cops for small shit. They ID you, save the evidence and throw it in your file. After a while you just walk into the store, don't even have to buy any thing, cops and manager / loss control waiting when you try to exit. Police escort you into room put you in cuffs and you get explained that you are being charged for $1000's in theft and that not only are you perma banned from the store, but you are getting a ride to your new temporary home from the cops, and your car will be towed and waiting for you in impound if you ever get the legal stuff sorted out. |

Lets say I buy organic bananas and cucumbers. when I got to self checkout, I click on the NON organic bananas and cucumbers, so technically I am still paying for it, but I pay less why do I do it???? well, im not doing anything wrong since the Elites have killed the value of the dollar over the past 100 years... why the fvck should I have to keep paying more for the same fucking item and in addition, wages are still low... and...... these stores are requiring me to wear a mask, which infringes on my god given right, so FUCK YES, I will do it at self checkout... been doing it for 4 years. I only do it at the mega corporation stores, not small mom and pops stores. |

They either ask for your ID or instantly bypass the ID check. Why would you go wait in a long line to buy beer? they dont allow it in my parts. alcohol self checkout Grove And this is why we can't have nice things. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78532143 United States 06/30/2020 01:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Reading an article on stealing from self checkouts. Quoting: Mathetes 2.0 One comment caught my eye “There is NO MORAL ISSUE with stealing from a store that forces you to use self checkout, period. THEY ARE CHARGING YOU TO WORK AT THEIR STORE.” The article discusses the fact people who would never steal from a human, have no problem stealing from a machine. [link to getpocket.com (secure)] Where is the Poll? I do not steal from anyone. Apparently inserting the poll was too complicated to learn. So we'll all pat ourselves on the back that we don't steal and go back to road rage, tailgating, harassing the shit out of people on the road, being generally assholes, swearing, getting STD's from lascivious sex, lying, lying some more, etc. |

Butters User ID: 75764067 United States 06/30/2020 01:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't steal. I've worked in a lot of retail stores & it always pissed me off when I saw someone stealing. Aren't people afraid? At Walmart they have a camera at every self checkout. Surely, they know if you don't ring something up.

JESUS CHRIST is the ONLY WAY to SALVATION, DELIVERANCE and PEACE! Soon his grace will be taken from the earth and his WRATH will be poured out. Accept JESUS CHRIST while the GRACE of GOD is still available. May the Peace of God be with you! Love, Pray, Repent and Forgive. |

In his poem Human Pride, Marx admits that his aim is not to improve the world, reform or revolutionize it, but simply to ruin it and enjoy it being ruined: With disdain I will throw my gauntlet full in the face of the world, And see the collapse of this pygmy giant whose fall will not stifle my ardor.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78454198 United States 06/30/2020 02:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Never. I'm a black guy, so there's no way I could get away with anything like that. Plus, the aliens follow me everywhere (they're actually there before I get there, so it's more like "follow"), so if I even thought about it (they've got one of their psychics on me) then "they" would probably have store security tackle me. |

User ID: 78212432 United States 06/30/2020 02:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm sure most everyone has seen the video of shoplifters in a drug store (I think it was) in CA, just loading up on shit because no prosecutions for theft under 900. They don't even have bother with self checkout because liberals. Ironically, these same corporations getting stolen will fall all over themselves to virtue signal and donate huge money to the very NGOs who are promoting the chaos. As I understand, grocery stores operate on a very small margin so I don't know how they can afford all of the theft. I guess it's costing them less than paying cashiers.
