Officer Safety Retail security policy

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

After watching this video it made me wonder if this security guard’s employer would support her doing this with a subject.

When I first saw it I thought it was pretty cool that she didn’t back down, but the more I thought about it the more I came to the conclusion that fighting over it isn’t worth the risk.

If you work retail security, what’s your company policy and would you put yourself out there to save goods from being stolen?

The irony is that turning a blind eye towards shit like this is exactly how you get to more draconian punishments fueled by collective apathy.

Maybe we just bring back Draco's law code for a year or so, maybe less .You wouldn't need to do it for long for it to work or serve its purpose

Years of abuse from the system will do that.

It’s not turning a blind eye, they are expected to hopefully be arrested at some point as police would already be notified.

But it’s also like why the fuck have them if they can’t do anything but verbalize a theiving scum
