Especially as just an employee of a large corporation. Not like his money is affected by the shoplifting. Dude probably was just itching to actually shoot someone.
Knew a guy in my retail days who would chase shoplifters out the door, one time did a flying double leg kick, thing, and dropped a guy (not permanently injured) to the ground.
He almost lost his job, and as a witness I got to make a statement (no charges filed, ultimately for the retail guy) but corporate put a quick stop to that behaviour.
It was better than minimum wage, but not much. No benefits. I still don't understand the thought on it. Risk your life for little better than minimum wage? For a massive global company? Fuck that.
Was held up at gunpoint once. Popped the register open and stepped back. He needs a couple hundred bucks that bad he can have it, I'm not dying for that shit.
