They used to have a holding room behind the returns counter to keep shoplifters until the police arrived. If the shoplifters were minors, they'd hold them there in that room until the parents arrived. I figured all that out one day while standing in the returns line.

Back in the 90s when I worked at a music store,we'd take a Polaroid picture of every thief and tack it to the wall in the office that we called "The Wall Of Shame" haha.

Is it bad that I am somewhat interested in working some place part-time like a Wal-Mart Auto Centre or Jiffy Lube so that at least some of the people that take their cars there get the job done right?

I wouldn't want to see what happens if he tried to return a Wal-Mart Maxx battery.

In Maryland, Wal-Mart Security is the police department. At the door.

I hate to ask, but why do you even care?
Are you a shoplifter in your spare time?

I've thought about doing that for a weekend gig to make some extra money.
