CaffeineFree : If the theft exceeds the budget then loss prevention comes in a fires the manager and puts new policies in place.
 
ZMAN : Now it's my turn to roll my eyes. That's not the way it works in major retailers, trust me.

It's not about protecting Walmart or feeling sympathy for a giant corporation. That's not the point. It's about the fact that stealing is wrong, period. We all learned that as kids. And whether it's Walmart or a small business, those losses don't just disappear - they get pushed back onto customers in higher prices. So shrugging it off doesn't help anyone. Right is right, and wrong is wrong.
 
GenXennial : Thank you.

CaffeineFree : Your right, in major retailers the manager get less of a bonus if the shrink number is too high.
 
ZMAN : Yes, that is true.

You're right - we don't know for sure what happened, and in the end it's not really our business. But that doesn't mean you have to clap back at someone just for sharing an opinion. Discussing the bigger picture isn't the same as personally attacking anyone.
 
And sure, life isn't always black-and-white, I agree. But basic values like not stealing are about as close as it gets. Some things really are pretty straightforward.

No, I'm not "doing that" to you. I'm replying to the topic being discussed, not attacking you for having an opinion. Sharing viewpoints is part of a message board, sure - but there's a difference between conversation and taking shots at people. I'm here for the discussion, that's all.
