Quoth Princess-Snake View PostClown-horn? Do you mean a bull-horn?
OP works at a large electronics store: Best Buy, Future Shop, etc. A head office maroon decides to get rid of the LP guy, and items are being stolen at an alarming rate.
"How can we stop this?" ask the suits.
The question is answered: Install clown horns in every second aisle. Is an employee (or a customer) sees someone stealing crap, they are to blow the clown horn, annoying the crap out of everyone in the store, and scaring the would-be thief into submission. In the end, the horns are blown only by customers who like to make loud noises, and thefts remain at an all-time high.I pray for the strength to change what I can, the inability to change what I can't, and the incapacity to tell the difference -Calvin, Calvin & Hobbes

Quoth NightAngel View PostIf you carry a cel phone (sometimes digital cameras) that's what is setting off the alarm.
Quoth deafcat24 View PostIn the last two months I have accidentally taken a chocolate bar, a box of Hot Stuff pizzas from two different stores. So bad I walked out of the drug store with it in the bottom of the cart behind my cases of pop. I probably could have gotten away with the hot stuffs because the cashier at the grocery store wasn't paying attention, but fortunately my mom caught it, again behind a case of pop. Even if she didn't catch it, the carry out would have.
I went to the local Krap-Mart looking for four different items. I found the first three, but could not locate the fourth, and went to the service desk to ask about it, with the other three items in my hand. It turned out they didn't carry the fourth item, so I left, forgetting one minor thing....
...or should I say three minor things, namely the other three items I had picked up, still had in my hands, and had not paid for. I got about halfway to the car before I realized it. Fearing that they were going to come out the door chasing me down any second, I quickly went back inside to explain what had just happened.
Their dumbfounded reply was, "You came back?" They had no idea I had left with the unpaid items, and were even more surprised that I could have gotten away with it, but chose not to.Sometimes life is altered.
Break from the ropes your hands are tied.
