My Wal-Mart has a Subway, and I typically go there if I need something to drink. That way, no one can accuse me of stealing something because, to my knowledge, Wal-Mart does not sell drinks with the word "Subway" on the side of the cup.
The loss control people were just doing their job, because of the entitlement attitude most people have these days, thinking that someone "owes" them something. So, they will take things, not pay for them, and that ends up costing honest people money. Loss control is a big thing these days. Frankly, the only difference between Wal-mart and Costco is that the Wal-Mart person was purposely letting you know he was watching you. And, Wal-Mart doesn't hassle you when you exit the store by making you show a receipt to confirm you're leaving with the stuff you purchased (my wife told me a story about someone she suspected was trying to exit the store with a cart full of stuff, and obviously no receipt).
So basically, teedubbya, you're complaining because someone, who is gainfully employed, was merely doing his/her job, and helping the company try to save money.
Real class.
And this is the guy who gave me a hard time talking about fraud and losses in Medicare and Medicaid.
It's probably better you not shop at Wal-Mart in the future.
