What exactly is the Company Protocol when a customer is actively stealing from the Company? Is there any leeway here? Maybe the Protocol is not clearly enumerated.
I was at LSU in the 80s and had a friend who worked at 7-11. He showed me the employee handbook

even then, they were under orders not to physically stop thieves.

I'd shoot somebody too if I spent hours in a tanning bed to darken my white skin. That's just another raging cracker looking to pop off and blame his fake race.

Can't stand a thief ,but

Police said they could hear a firearm being racked in the video mere seconds before the first round went off.


This is a tad bit excessive and a little bit of an overreaction.

16 free ounces of Coke instead of water?


Probably had another job and this was just a muscle memory reflex.

Could you imagine losing your freedom because a customer at the Taco Bell you work at decided to get 16 free ounces of Coke instead of water?

I mean, WTF?


While I'm impressed with their dedication in trying to hold others to a high-trust society theme, there needs to be some life-coaching geared towards teaching them how to shoot for more intermediate benchmarks before escalating to the extreme.

I see everyone is making jokes about it but im going to ask the real question: is there a rule saying you have to supply water cups? I've never understood why they will give the cheap clear water cups to watch people go over and get a soda.

If I owned a fast food place and had to provide water cups, they would be the size a thimble. They would barely hold a 1/2 oz of drink.

Maybe he was just trying to shoot the cup out of her hand wild west saloon style.
