    glad you approve :) if that was me though i'd go for the burrito. cause i can get cheap pizza more easily

    I initially leaned toward the 'rrito, but then I thought the pizza would be something that could last for a couple of meals...it's kinda hard to eat a whole pizza at one sitting...unless, of course, we're talking about one of those "personal" pizzas...

    Wait, did you mean you wouldn't waste your time worrying about shoplifters at all? Sounds like you've never run a business or had to worry about the bottom line.

    now an economics lesson..come back down to earth..this isnt a big deal and neither someone stealing a donut.


    bottom line.

    so that's an excuse for stealing?

    Well, he is facing a potential life sentence...that should give comfort to some people in America.

    If there was ever a petty/borderline crime combined with extreme over reaction this would probably be it.

    I wonder what color the terror/paranoia level was at that day?
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Are you 15 years old? Maybe you're a shoplifter. I know that any rational person would understand that you have to have some sort of loss prevention in place if you hope to keep your margins.

    Sorry to bother you with economics, law, and logic. Time for you to run along and steal a donut.

    great posts :D next time we've got to talk to that guy so that at least he steals some food that's really worth it!!

    though stealing personal pizza is a bit more tricky, cause i imagine he has to order it first

    come on now, jeffbr, you know if something is less than a dollar, it's ok to steal...

    you just being silly thinking that it's not ok to steal small items...

    which makes it (the pizza) a great item to steal...as they hand it to you, run out the door, and since the worker is behind the counter, no one will be in the way to assault...
