Boy, I tell you it feels good to be a witness to someone trying to steal something in a super-duper-huge-buy-all-your-stuff-store!

I had just checked out and was on my way out the door. I hear the alarm beeping. You know, the one that goes off when DVD's, CD's or other type merchandise that is magnetized. I see this older man with an oversized light blue suit jacket come around the corner and take a yellow-ish CD out from his shirt and quickly hid it in the styrofoam coolers that was next to the ice freezer. The door greeter then came around the corner. At this moment I am pushing my cart towards the older man. I then proceded to point at him and said he took a yellow CD from his shirt and put it in the coolers. The old man then started to deny it, but I kept standing there staring at him. The guy finally admitted to his wrong doing and showed the guy the CD he tried to steal.

I don't know what happened after that. I did talk to another manager and told him what I saw. I was given a few thank you's and was sent on my way. I only hope that they took some action against the man, but  I have worked in one of those big-super-duper-spend-all-your-moola-at-one-place stores before. Unless he had other items he was trying to steal on his person, they might not have done anything.

At any rate, it still feels good to be a witness and to see the person admit that he did it.
