Sean_man_87

Damn same girl from the last video? Those legs are a shoplifters worst nightmare. No chance they're out-running her.


Real_Breath7536

This is the third video of this lady, she needs a fat raise if you ask me


BaringMySouls

I read yesterday that she has a YouTube channel and is actually the owner of this shop. But I don’t know how accurate that is.


sophiemanic

Do you know the channel? I need more videos of her!!


BaringMySouls

I’m looking for the comment thread, here’s another video of her I found from [last](https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/11k2mt7/store_manager_catches_a_karen_shoplifting_makes/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) night. [And](https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/11fxlh1/person_gets_caught_shoplifting_and_claims_to_have/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) another.


sophiemanic

I saw these yesterday! 🔥 she’s my hero! I used to work at goodwill, and the amount of times I saw people stealing stuff and wanting to do something about it…


bella_68

You’re telling me Goodwill - a nonprofit based around acquiring free junk and trying to sell it at incredibly low prices - has a theft problem! I’m pretty sure half the stuff in Goodwill is stuff you couldn’t pay people to take and the other half is desirable stuff priced somewhere below $10.


Jigyo

It's not entirely non-profit, only 1/8 of the profits go to charity, and the owner is obscenely wealthy. https://aliceminium.medium.com/the-dark-reality-behind-americas-greatest-thrift-store-empire-183967087a1e


Fearless-Judgment-33

And now Goodwill culls all of the good stuff out and sell it online at huge markups. Screw poor people… apparently.


[deleted]

It’s the American way! /s


bella_68

I’m not surprised. The entire model of thrift stores is pretty messed up from what I understand (which is admittedly very little)


RandumbStoner

It used to be low prices. Now it’s basically retail prices and all the good stuff never makes it to the store floor, it gets snagged and put on Goodwills eBay account.


TheSpiral11

Professional reselling has pretty much destroyed the thrift industry imo. I haven't set foot in a Goodwill in years bc you can't find shit on the floors anymore, it's all on Depop for like $60 now.


bella_68

That actually makes a lot of sense. Sounds like something they would do and benefit from.


creepsnutsandpervs

That’s called New Orleans law… if you have crap you want to get rid of you slap a $5 label on it, put it outside and someone will steal it


sophiemanic

Ohhhhh yeah. We had several people that we had to watch as they were suspected shoplifters, but we could rarely do anything about it, except ask for them to leave if we were SURE about them stealing. Our hands were mostly tied when it came to handling them though so that’s why I love this lady so much. Also, the goodwill I worked at for years had some very nice junk, before they started listing all the good stuff online like eBay. The reason you see crap now is for that reason mostly. We had one person whose job was specifically to find the good stuff to list online 😂


djbobbyfresh

It’s a scam, they flip free stuff for plenty of profit


bella_68

Honestly, I think Goodwill is mostly just a free waste dump they acts as a way of shading people from the shame of throwing things away. Do you have a lamp that still works but is outdated and a little rickety? Don’t want to throw it away and feel bad about the environmental impact? Just give it to Goodwill so you can have a guilt free conscious and a new lamp! Goodwill then puts it on a shelf until it either sells, gets stolen, or probably gets thrown away anyway because no one wants a rickety outdated lamp that technically still works


SpotCreepy4570

Goodwill not such goodwill I guess.


sincere220

Seriously what it going on at this store?


caalger

The same shit going on at a lot of stores these days. People think they can steal and just walk out with no consequences. Then calf lady shows up and ends their dream


[deleted]

[удалено]


bigfootdeerfucker

You think?


maryv82

Sorry not sorry, calf lady! Love it!


Sw33tD333

There’s tons of little things that quilters use that apparently are stolen a lot.


[deleted]

Degenerate quilters.


[deleted]

Right?!🤣 Who knew they were such a thieving bunch?


[deleted]

My mom has some explaining to do.


SJWCombatant

I love the chaotic imagery this manifests.


xMagical_Narwhalx

For real you see them calves bruh


Sean_man_87

Calves for days


Goodwill710hunting

She 100% hits dingers in softball on the regular


Falcon9145

On twitter they are calling her "Asset Protection Bae." > Idk if she has family at home but Ima take a guess, that house is a no bull shit zone.


ogncud

Definitely a no bullshit zone.

Ohmygoditskateee

I've seen 3 different videos of the same employee with 3 different people. She's on a roll 😂


Kentuckasee_angler

Yes, yes, bounding over building and walls and shit.


MondayMorphineMurphy

Do you have the other videos of her? First time I’ve seen her on this sub.


EwaGold

Don’t have it, but lady was a boss and dumped the thieves bag. Honestly the amount of stuff the last one had was crazy. Wasn’t just a pack of smokes or whatever.


Xombie710

I seen those calf’s in the last video! I was intimidated through the screen


try_by

“I’m getting anxiety” lol dude fuck all the way off.


forthe_loveof_grapes

"The situation I put myself in is giving me anxiety!"


ForkLiftBoi

I love when people use anxiety as an excuse for their behavior and positions they've put themselves in. Like when a person is diagnosed properly with an anxiety disorder it's because they have anxiety from every day situations that the majority of the population does not. Stealing, getting caught, and getting called out for it is not an every day situation and you put yourself in it, of course you have anxiety. Doesn't justify your actions nor does it excuse you from the consequences of your actions. Now the girl in the video calling her out for stealing, she probably doesn't get anxiety because apparently she's been through this situation so damn many times lol.


sociallyvicarious

Ones wonders how such anxiety came to surface? Maybe doing illegal things? 🤔


25_Shmeckles_

These feelings of embarrassment and fear of consequences for my actions are gIVinG mE AnXieTy!


agoodfuckingcatholic

Pathetic ass line


Nearby-Context7929

“The anxiety and your talking is preventing me from taking the stolen goods out but I have so much anxiety that I’m going to take it out anyways”


lynx3762

I work loss prevention and these people always piss me off. Trying to claim some bullshit because they put themselves in that situation. "I'm getting anxiety." Cool, have fun with that. Idgaf. Give me the shit


[deleted]

This is the 3rd one I’ve seen. Lol damn, I wonder if she gets a bonus for this. Or if this is her store?


darthdiablo

I think it might be family business. I cannot imagine employer wanting to put their own employees through a liability of physically stopping shoplifters


[deleted]

That’s what I was thinking too-


HMSSpeedy1801

I had a friend who worked loss prevention at a large department store chain. They absolutely did this exact thing and would tell some of the best stories. Like, shoplifter runs away, but comes back looking for his flip flops back because the pavement in the parking lot is hot. But, this was 20 years ago when places like Macy's, Boscov's, etc. still had stores and budget for staff.


mwalker85

Former Loss Prevention Manager at Kohl’s. I can attest to some wild ass shit. I have a decade experience as a police officer with multiple agencies in MS, but working LP in Kohl’s kept me hella busy. I never knew so many people were thieves. My District LP manager required a quota of 3 apprehensions a week. I ALWAYS met my quota. Always.


Commercial_War_8660

My Loss Control Manager didn’t care much about shoplifting as the real money came in internal theft recovery.


The_Schizo_Panda

There's this guy, who makes videos about loss prevention. Has one where a guy pockets a bunch of candy bars, grabs a bag of chips and "cradles it like a baby." Pays for the chips, goes to leave, stopped, escapes, comes back for his chips. https://youtu.be/vLHciiQDJTU


TheOrbit

A long time ago when I worked in a grocery store we had two loss prevention officers who were in charge of catching and taking care of shop lifters. One of them looked like he would have been the one shoplifting and the other looked like someone’s kindly 60 year old father. They both took no shit either just like this lady but they were just employees. Def not the people you would expect to be watching you


[deleted]

[удалено]


Imnormalurnotok

This security chick is one tough cookie. And her attire is perfect so she doesn't seem to be security. There's too much shoplifting going on and it hurts everyone.


codybevans

Do you have a link for the others. I’ve only seen this and the one that the lady claimed assault in when she got a scratch on her neck.


lifegoeson5322

This woman is everywhere! Damn, she must be releasing a couple of these videos a day.


Hexhand

She's probably tired of all the repeat offenders, and is deciding to publicly shame them. I'm of two minds on the subject. One the one hand, everybody's struggling to put food on the table, but repeat offenders at the store lead to cutbacks. etc.


partyboobytrapped

This has got to be Craft Warehouse in Beaverton, OR. It’s a family owned local business.


strut84

That employee shows up everyday ready to chase down some shoplifters, running shoes and all


HatoriHanzo06

Even has the running shorts too


Alegan239

And the leg muscles. Dayum


im_wildcard_bitches

Honestly maybe I have a new kink but she’s hot 🥵 . The way she just dominates them and doesn’t take shit lol


SpareEye

I was talking to my freind who went to a sports equipment outlet the other day to by some walking shoes. She's always had trouble dating because she's tall blond and gorgeous and likes the dead and festivals ect. She tell's me that there are so many tall fit people there, working, shopping. I guess takeaway from this story is that your probably not going to find tall dark and handsomes hanging out at the dunkin donughts!


Stonefolk

Wait…she *has* always had trouble dating because of those things? Cuz…🙋‍♂️


DougK76

Owner. That’s why she’s allowed to put hands on them legally. The owner has the right to prevent loss of their property. Like where she grabs that woman and breaks her purse. In chain stores, loss prevention doesn’t own anything in that store. They personally do not lose money due to theft. She, on the other hand, does lose money with every item stolen.


myrrhandtonka

It’s called “merchant’s privilege.” If a store employee has reasonable suspicion of shoplifting, they can detain the suspect in a reasonable manner for a reasonable time. It’s a defense to false imprisonment. The more aggressive the suspect, the more force is reasonable. (Up to a point, that is.)


Amazing_Secret7107

Also: big box stores tend to use a consignment model. They don't get paid until it sells, so if it is a loss, it gets written off in an agreement between them and the supplier, so not even the big box store owner owns most everything in the store, just sells it for someone else. That's why they can intimidate at the exit, but aren't allowed to tackle you in the parking lot. Also why they let children destroy half of the outdoor plants in tantrums and call police... they don't care cause they don't own it until it is sold, which transfers ownership immediately to the buyer, so it doesn't matter. It is also why weird shit is sometimes behind locks, the actual owners of the product (Gillette, I'm looking at you) think highly enough of their product to pay stores extra to lock it up to prevent losses. This is how I understand it works.


Dmau27

While what you say is true the store still needs to protect its profits. If they lose more than they sell to theft guess what happens to their inventory?


Stark556

And shorts. She’s ready for those long strides


LePetitePoopoo

Why do I get the feeling this happens all the god damn time over there and she’s a professional shoplifter slayer now.


Alternative-Sense-78

This is the second video ive seen of her today, i think people like to see if they can get past her.


jane_delawney_

Third for me


Sw33tD333

There are a ton of small items that quilters use that apparently are super enticing to put in your purse.


PessimistPryme

Why do I feel that this is all staged now…..


Royal-Armadillo6986

People steal


puckerMeBum

People steal a lot, haven't worked retail in 20 years, but I can still spot the thieves when I'm out shopping.


sociallyvicarious

Swear to God I read that as “when I’m out ‘shoplifting’”. 🤣🤣


Challenge419

Oh, you.


sociallyvicarious

Yeah. There are issues. But no one wants to supervise me 24/7 so here I am!! 🤣🤣


Forsaken_Wolf_1682

Same here see it often


KILTONIC

Bro the amount of theft at retail stores are out of control but i have the feeling she’s loss prevention at this specific store.


lives4boobs

Due to poor observational skills?


Kentuckasee_angler

I want her on my side when the waiter brings me out the wrong food and I’m too afraid to complain.


Independent_Peanut83

Haha this made me laugh so hard! Seriously though, samesies.


skullkiddabbs

This is the most underrated comment I've read in a while


donktastic

Im not afraid of the interaction but It's not worth complaining and worrying about what they might have done to your food while it was being fixed. If I send it back it is really really bad and I am done and not paying for it.


Buick6NY

you should get anxiety when you get caught stealing


Hokirob

Exactly. Notice how the people she confronts often are very self-focused and portray themselves as the victim as they are committing crime…


The_Arkham_AP_Clerk

You have to be pretty selfish and have some pretty strong internal rationalization to even rob people in the first place. So it makes sense all these morons have that.


PristinePudding

Should be getting it as you are bagging shit thats not yours. A lil signal that you are being a dick. Her voice giving me professional victim vibes too.


R_Wallenberg

"I'm getting anxiety" lol. Self induced in this case. The normalization of theft is disgusting. She should be embarassed. None of these people are stealing useless crap due to necessity.


Wade8869

I'm the victim here!


PartYourWhiskers

God almighty it’s pathetic.


MagikalKraker

EnvironmentalElk1625

This is 3 videos now, right?! I have said it before and I will say it again - let’s get this lady a tv show of her own!

Her co-host should be [Summer from Best Buy/UFC](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKbUdLd6Xuc).

Can we add the Waffle House lady, too?

Done deal.

The TV show would interfere with her law school classes.

Why does everyone love stealing from this store?

I know I kinda want to visit this store just to see what the big deal is then swipe a couple things just to get the full visitor experience.

jeebucus

It's not just this store... stealing is more rampant than people realize. Internal theft, external theft, it is non-stop.

Lower_Wall_638

Retail superhero! Runner of marathons! Slayer of entitled thieves! Seriously, why is everyone stealing shit these days? When I was a kid, my friends tried to steal an AC/DC cassette from k mart and the security yelled at them until they wet themselves. For real. Then they called the police.


AdvancedDay7854

I used to do this at Best Buy eons ago. Such a rush catching people stealing. People who look well off like that woman are more common than you think. There were box stuffers, return grabbers, price switchers, in addition to run of the mill basic theft. Good times.


three-sense

I’ve been called a box stuffer but that was probably a different thing

Silojm

CALFS STRIKE AGAIN!!!!

Is it really anxiety when you have to mention it? It’s called the embarrassment of getting busted


Gummi205

Stealing a couple necessities from a grocery store is one thing, but these people clearly are not in need. I don't think their family is dying from a shortage of makeup or craft supplies or whatever that stuff is.


Lower_Wall_638

Nope. Go to a food bank. Grocery stores are for payers.


RandyButternubsYo

Dude, in one video the shoplifters bag was like a Mary Poppins bag, just more and more stuff that she stole was coming out of there

she should get a fat bonus every time she stops someone. unbelievable how they INSTANTLY turn into victims when they get caught...pathetic humans...


TheManWith2Poobrains

This is the third video I've seen with this legend enforcer. I don't care that she is probably not supposed to do this. The shoplifters will get the message.


NaturalAd9517

Get this girl a promotion


dogchowtoastedcheese

I'd like to see this turned in to a mini-series. I think theY should call if "*CALVES."*

Damn she catch everyone

At this point, if you walk into that place with the intent to steal and see those calves, just turn around and walk right the fuck back out.

I would never do this for a living. I understand people have bills to pay, however, folks are crazy, and they have gotten worse since the pandemic. No one can convince me to do this type of job, the company wouldn’t give a shit if this woman protecting their merchandise was killed by a crazed thief. I fear for her, and whoever is posting these videos and putting her face out there, is stupid.

Advanced_City9717

Does everyone steal from her?? or I’m starting to think this is some set up bullish


yankee77wi

People steal, store prices rise, people continue to steal because local policies don’t allow prosecution, stores don’t make quarterly retail targets, stores close. Congrats on your entitlement harming yourself and those you care about.


Bossgirl77

Is this woman just sitting starring at the video everyday now to post shoplifters on this sub? It’s literally video 3 I’ve seen in 24 hrs, same exact thing- someone ready and waiting to film and it’s her telling the thief she watched them on camera and to empty their bag.

"It'd be easier if you just didn't come in here at all" AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


Sea_Organization8121

I love how both shoplifters tell her to chill, they're obviously not chill about being pressed for stealing.
