Corporate Policies ?

After reading this you may think it should have been the joke section. The sad truth is all this is TRUE.
I work for a BIG well known retailer. These are for real. If you try to detain a shoplifter, you will be fired on the spot. No questions asked. A while they took out the alarms at the exists that go off if the anti-thief devices are still active. The company said the noise was bothering the customers. If we have an active shooter in the building, one of the things the training video said we can do is to attack the person with the gun. The training video doesn't say to use a 10-32 machine screw, a roll of duck tape, or a 2x4. There a LOT of Lithium batteries around. No mention of these in any of the training. Also no Type D Fire extinguishers any where around. Some of the poeple in my dept. have had their hours cut. We were told it was seasonal adjustments. The same day a new hire started work. We sell about a hundred 20lb. Propane tanks a week. Someone forget to check stock last week. We ran out last Sat. Still wainting for the delivery.
Sort of makes you wonder doesn't.
