Confessions of a Shoplifter....

shoplifter [ˈʃɒpˌlɪftə]
n
a person who steals goods from a shop during shopping hours



This is my first time working retail that I have had to deal with shoplifters, I now wear my "quiet" shoes to work, they are cute, grey, Skechers and they ARE quiet. I enjoy sneaking up on lifters as they are trying to put merchandise in their purses. 

*Wilda(beast) is a frequent lifter at *Dexters, she comes maybe once a week or every two. Brings different people, acts nasty to the sales clerks and then when she knows we are on to her she storms out and makes a ruckus. I give her so much credit, she really does try!

*Grandma is another one, she KNOWS I am on to her scheme, so now when she sees me working, she leaves the store, LOL!

*Big Willie got stone cold busted trying to put merchandise down his pants, THAT was funny!

What is really sad is that you see these people leave the store, they go to the next store and when they leave there, their purses are 10 times bigger. People like these are what drive up sales for the rest of us honest people.
