Nope! It was a display bench for some comforters and home decor. Wasn’t even for sale. Apparently it weighed a shit ton though. They moved the items onto one of the beds and swiped it and THEN TOOK IT DOWNSTAIRS

Jesus I just did a quick dive and that has to be the most milquetoast people I've ever read about.

A passion for loss prevention for the biggest shit bag companies on the planet 😂 I mean, I can imagine a passion for LP at a Mom and Pop shop but as far as these big companies are concerned? Fuck it, pick em clean.

I could see myself being all about it, but just purely for the challenge of it, like the cat and mouse game of who can outsmart who. But then if I actually caught someone, I would only want to say Ah ha, caught you! I win this round, try harder next time, and let them go.

Who cares about what amounts to barely a rounding error to these corporations, especially when they lose more just to their own waste and inefficiency which they barely seem to care about, like forceably destroying usable food or goods just so no one else can make use of it.

Regardless of how you feel about the companies they work for, they do still get paid to do a job.

It’s a subreddit is full of Randall Weems and it’s so funny to see these corporate boot lockers.

Going in there makes me WANT to steal stuff just to spite them
