teach their employees they actually have any right to stop me and check my receipt?

bought something at best buy and walked out (with receipt visibly in hand) the lady followed me out of the store to saying she needed to see it. when i held it up for her to see that i had one and kept walking she still insisted she needed to check it off... told her she didn't need to and kept walking. she went back in saying something about me being privileged.

i guess me not wanting to submit to a voluntary search is privileged...

(it was something that would be spider-wrapped, can't exactly just grab it off a shelf and walk out anyway)

Sounds like you were wrongfully accosted. I'm surprised you didn't call the cops on that bitch. What a dumb bitch.

Because cops dont have anything better to do than to intervene in something trivial like this?

It would be one thing if they attempted to detain him, but someone asking to check his receipt and calling him privileged are not reasons to call the cops.

But he couldve contacted a manager about them calling him privileged, if it bothered him enough to do so. Thats unprofessional.

My first ever job was working in retail at a store where part of the job was checking receipts as people left. I was never told that this was voluntary. I would get yelled at / reprimand, and even got written up if I let anyone leave the store without checking their reciept. This job paid barely more than minimum wage. It was the absolute WORST job I've ever had. I felt like a piece of shit every time I approached a customer.

It was also bullshit because when I got hired it was advertised as a warehouse job. I did warehouse work about 20% of the time, I was checking receipts the other 80% of the time. No one wanted to fucking do that job.

I thought it would be obvious that I was joking, but I guess it's not always so obvious on here. Dude should've just showed her the receipt.

Doesn't matter if they have the right or not. They are just following company policy. Thankfully we don't do that over here unless something really is questionable. Still I can see why they do it as they are just making sure everything is legit. Hardly a effort to show them the receipt and let them do what they need to do unless you're in a rush or something.

at least it wasn't as bad as at walmart. once the guy cursed at me in another language (judging by tone and context) the other time (same guy) placed his hand on my chest to stop me and tried grabbing the reciept from my hand.

I mean, I think there's fault on both sides; she was just doing her job and was probably unprofessional about it, but you also could've probably spared the six seconds it takes to look at the receipt and then look at the item in your hand.

It also seems like she should've been in a position where she didn't have to follow you out of the store; the point of being one of those people is to be directly in front of the exit so you as the consumer see the employee waving you down for your receipt, as opposed to what seems like a place where you easily could've missed her.

Probably made them waste time by looking through the cameras to see if you stole something since you couldn't stop for a few seconds.

psvr bundle, large box that would have been spiderwrapped on the shelf. 3 separate employees knew i was getting it because ofc the 1st employee never sent someone over, the 2nd got someone for that area, and the 3rd got it from the back.

Yeah probably made them waste time doing their jobs and using the cameras for their intended purpose.

Fair enough. Its odd your phone doesnt auto-capitalize after periods, though.
