Scored A New Job!

[K245five]

As the title of this thread states, I was able to land a new position with my company doing Loss Prevention work.

I'm really excited about this turn of events! Better pay, working with cool people, and I get to do something that I really want to do within retail.

However, I would really appreciate some advice from the people here, seeing as how I'm a newbie at this particular "branch" of operations.

I have extensive retail experience and exposure to customers in general, so I'm somewhat attuned to sensing and spotting suspicious behavior pertaining to shoplifting. But this will be the first time I will be "authorized" to actually stop
people if they shoplift.

What are some typical cons that people try to pull? As I said before, I've researched the position and spoke to present LP personnel at length regarding this, but I'd also like to hear from some of you, seeing as how some of y'all have some LP experience yourselves.

I decided to put this in Bragging Base because it's a big victory for me personally, but I would also like some advice and pointers as well. Any and all input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I've never been LP, but I did security at a warehouse where there was concern over employees stealing stuff. I know they were required to take off their belts when leaving the building because they'd hide stuff between the belt and their pants. Don't know if that's useful, but that's one thing I learned.
