@ngelsDie Play The Finals. The community is pretty decent, and the discord admins are down to earth. Of course you're always going to run into dipshits but I've seen far less in The Finals. Plus, it's just really fun.
@gtrunner@EvolHenHouse@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah Was the loss prevention in the wrong? Absolutely. I haven't been defending them, only pointing out that this was a bad stop and that the person that the apa put hands on should Absolutely press charges regardless of crime.
@gtrunner@EvolHenHouse@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah Ok, but you saw it. You didn't do it. Most loss prevention and asset protection aren't trained properly. They're legit just looking for a physical altercation. If they do put hands on you, press charges. Simple as that. Also, what do you mean by hurt my feelings? lol
@EvolHenHouse@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah Are you guys just looking to argue for no reason? All I'm saying is that you bypassed the last point of sale, meaning the last register. They can make the stop at that point depending on the location.
@gtrunner@EvolHenHouse@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah Yeah ok, my 10+ years of doing the job mean I don't know what I'm talking about. Yep, totally plausible. Not an ignorant statement at all.
@EvolHenHouse@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah I'm assuming the age on your profile if correct, so we're also talking about asset protection from 10 years ago. Was a different time for that profession. They're slowly being phased out of most retail stores these days because of the increasing incidents.
@EvolHenHouse@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah If you made it to the door, they stopped you for bypassing last point of sale with concealed merchandise on your person. That means they had their elements and felt comfortable making the stop. As far as the physical grabbing, I can't answer that.
@jaaackierose@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah Yes and no. They can, but only if they have their elements. Alert signal, selection, concealment, continued surveillance, and apprehension. If they lose any of those, the stop is supposed to be considered a wash. But even then. Physical altercations are frowned upon.
@TrebiArt @fayemikah Fuck. How many of us are going to misspell this shit π it's 2023 and we're still not using spell check. My bad guys. Burglary. I fixed it. You're welcome. But still, incorrect.
@TrebiArt @fayemikah Incorrect, and this isn't burlargy. They can't stop unless the subject, not suspect, has bypassed the last point of sale. Once that happens, sure you can attempt a stop. But most of the time it's not worth the hassle. Just approach and inform them that they were caught. Simple.
@ElijahSchaffer No, this is how you make a bad stop. This is 100% not how you approach someone who is stealing. Not to mention, she hasn't even bypassed the last point of sale. This is bad, and goes to show that loss prevention aren't being trained properly.
@Samantha_MJ60 @fayemikah Incorrect. Her job is to determine if there is theft and approach them calmly. Not cause a scene and grab someone's purse before they even completely steal.
@fayemikah Not gonna defend the ap, since they made a stop before the last point of sale. So technically they're actually in the wrong. Its not theft until you leave the store in most cases. But most aps just like confrontation. It's easier to just ask for the shit back, instead of fighting
