    Why did you wait until he stole something?

    Could you have asked him if he needed some help finding something. He most likely would have said "no" and walked away.

    Instead you waited until he actually stole something and confronted him. Not the smartest move if you ask me.
    I did not ask you.
    He did not need help, he had his sights set on stealing so I let him. If you don't call people like that on their actions, then they will never stop doing it.
    Your a democrat I bet. lol

    I knew their would be one in here.

    What shocks me... you make over $250,000.00 (gross) annually from selling peanuts and popcorn. I mean, I don't make half as much as that per year... and I have all this goddamn trainning on relational databases and a DoD Secret Clearance.
    I'm in the wrong fucking business.
    Okay, first I should have never said anything about how much money I make in here.
    Second, All I am gonna say is that their is many ways to make money when you own the business that "others" dont know about.

    Please, in the future don't bring up my income again. Thanks :)

    Um no....Instead of waiting to call him out after he stole why didn't you resolve the situation before it happened. You knew he was going to steal so why have the confrontation afterward. Just nip it in the butt before it happens.

    Instead you acted like a tough guy and put yourself at risk for attack.

    How do you know the guy would have calmly given up and walked away if he was confronted beforehand anyway?

    Going up to this guy in an affeminate voice saying there was a sale on heated cheese balls on a stick probably would disarmed his thoughts on petty theft. But then again, if he was a republican, he would have been anti-gay and pushed AG away saying 'get away from me queer'. Or prolly not.

    that said...

    one of these summers i can't wait to get down there dressed as a gypsy and say 'I'm in the 10 Club, friend'. :D
    I love to turn you on

    I'm not saying he would have given up anything. I'm saying that if he knew the owner was there watching him he would have been less likely to steal in plain view of the shop owner. Instead he thought he could just grab and go undetected.

    My point is....

    Why wait until you are forced to have a confrontation when you can easily avoid it. I know this guy is a "tough guy", but I've seen/heard a lot of "tough guys" get themselves into a situation they can't handle.

    Quite possible. Often times the thief will react the same way when called out on it beforehand too.
    What's with all the 'tough guy' stuff? Dislike the OP?

    I'm not saying "calling him out".... I'm saying make it obvious that you work there. Maybe ask if he needs something. I think this would make him aware that he is about to steal with the owner looking right at him.

    By "calling him out" afterward you back him into a corner because he has already stolen and is more likely to make another irrational decision.

    The OP became a tough guy when he replied with a comment calling me a "liberal". Somehow suggesting that I was a "wuss" for telling him he should handle those situations differently.

    All I'm suggesting is that for his own safety in the future, he handle those situations with a little less street justice and a little more intellect.

    You always hear about the guy who tried to fight off an attacker getting stabbed or shot over a couple $'s. Not worth it IMO.

    ....and if this guy was "Ghetto" he might be more likely to have a weapon or know how to fight.

    I missed him saying that, hehe
    I used to work in retail, thieves suck. The ones who were obviously going to steal were also the ones who'd start yelling at you when you talked to them more than once.
