It's the ones who boost expensive items to make a profit. I get so mad at these people!! What gives them the right? The audacity!! If I can't have something for free, NOBODY should have it!

They steal expensive stuff from supermarkets to buy drugs Phat.

Well I know that! What gets me angry is that the store does little to stop them, and the hours keep getting cut from we employees to compensate.

Stores generally allow around 2% 'shrinkage' and figure that most of it will come from employees so they factor that in. I'd say that you'd be losing hours regardless of theft.

I feel your frustration though - if it was my store I'd be furious.
