My local Walmart has had so much theft they’ve blocked off all but 5 self checkout machines, which are manned by 2 associates at all times. Over the years they’ve gotten rid of all but 8 registers. Now these registers are all open and the lines reach the middle of the store. I hate going there now.
Also everything with a resale value is locked up in cabinets and the one associate with a key can never be found no matter how many times she’s paged by other associates.
If Walmart wasn’t cheaper by a giant margin I would never shop there again. But all Canadian grocery stores are owned by Billionaire aashats who raise the prices of everything then blame everyone else
I am vehemently against theft, or at least I used to be. Since they’re making me do the work of employees to buy shit, I’ve started giving myself “employee discounts”.
I was in NYC a few weeks ago and needed to buy some face wash, since mine was too big to take on the plane. Usually I just buy some when I get to my destination rather than fucking with the travel bullshit. Welp, literally everything in the entire store was locked, and they wanted $16 for a $6 bottle of face wash, and $8 for a $1 shower floofie. For fucking real.
Why wouldn’t it. What do you need from a checkout? I want to leave the store, not be entertained, coerced, woo-ed, just leave.
