I think shoplifting is pretty common here, especially when a store has poor security. I have mixed feelings about the greeters and stores that automatically assume I'm stealing, but the stores around me fill a lot of those positions with disabled and elderly people which is nice. Plus they usually know stuff about the store so I can ask them where product X is without having to wander all over.

edit: Wouldn't mind if Alice Walton ate a chainsaw.

i went to sams club with my sister once and they checked EVERY SINGLE CART leaving the store. they were senior citizens but the ones who are active and not the ones on too many drugs

i have a feeling it was more to make the store with a subscription fee feel like its ~premium~ rather than actual loss prevention

The Walmart near me ALWAYS has a police car parked at the front doors there. I don't know if I've ever been there and there weren't cops.

Is it true that their response to the deli counter trying to unionize in one store was to remove deli counters from every store and lay off thousands of people?

Wouldn't be surprised at all. Like the Emprie blowing up an entire planet.

I once talked the night manager at a Wal-Mart in Wichita, ks into selling and letting me install a new tire in their closed-for-the-night tire shop. I would have been screwed if he hasn't let me do that.

As I'm leaving there is a meth addled lady obviously shoplifting by taking things into the bathroom. The manager said it happens do much the cops won't even come and employees are powerless to stop it. I went into the bathroom and drug the lady and all her stolen poo poo out the front door as a thank you.

the HEB house brand is pretty good. I haven't bought one item of it that I regretted. Also I like that their stores are nice and their advertising/cs treats me like a human being rather than a lemming. The only heeb complaint I have is that my neighborhood heb is one og the little, more ghetto ones. If you live anyplace with a lot of rich white people nearby your heb is a whole lot nicer and has more stuff than mine.

My mom lives in the whitey white burbclaves in Houston and she's got the biggest, nicest heb ever 1 block outside of her neighborhood. Makes me green with envy whenever I go there. They have a craft beer tasting station and an actual cheese section with more than just sandwich cheeses. Oh well. That's what I get living somewhere affordable with a lot of browns. Sigh.
Retail isnt great but apparently HEB is a great company to work for. One of my buds is an HEB manager and was telling me about how after the floods earlier this year HEB HR was contacting management of all the stores in affected areas and asking them to help identify employees in each store who might have been affected by the flooding and a couple employees at his store who got their cars flooded out and HR ended up sending them $1000+ checks to help cover the costs. Also last year they gave shares to everyone who's worked in the company for a couple of years, even the cashiers and baggers

Ive heard so many :allears: stories from him about how their hires who come from Walmart with horror stories about what a shithole it is, and how so many of the people they fire for sucking end up over at Walmart

There was a Kmart near me as a kid that had once had a pet section and hamsters and parakeets had gotten loose in the store and no one did anything about it. Parakeets would flap around pooping on people and you had to check products on shelves for hamsters in case they'd gnawed their way inside

i think the grossest one i heard was about the walmart meat and how they have pink lighting in the meat cases to make it look fresh and how they turn the packages over at night and then flip them back over later because it slows the browing effect of old meat somehow

Non plaudite modo pecuniam jacite.

I don't ever shop at Wal-Mart because their stuff is cheap, they've historically had lovely business practices, and I don't live close to one. But I'm a frequent customer of Wal-Mart Vision, because eyeglass frames are just loving plastic with two small metal hinges. Unless they're those handcrafted wooden goon glasses, it's all made in some factory in Shenzhen anyhow whether it's Ray-Ban, Armani, or Sam's Club. So give me my $18 frames and I'll see you next year.
