Math is hard when you graduated from TikTok University. Walmart has college over $100,000,000 from this scheme and paid out $3M. You probz still need a calculator for this, but trust me, Walmart still comes out on top.
If that’s the case, then every time a Walmart cashier accidentally overcharges someone, Walmart should be held criminally liable for theft of property.
@@pleiadesluciernaga8877 same with Walmart. It's called scanning code of practice. However, so many people try to claim it's a different price when it isn't but all it takes is going and checking
I saw this coming a mile away when I first heard of self checkout. We're not trained and there are so many beeps around you if something gets missed. That's alot of work and disabled people cannot go there anymore, it's just too far to the parking lot, through the store, loading, checking out, reloading your cart and a long walk back to the car. I'm glad she won! Sam would nevef have left us all in this position if he was still here.
The lawyer that won her case needs to find every single person that this happened to and file the biggest class action suit known to humankind. This is gross. 🚫.
@@elmer8107 If they investigated a large portion and demanded Walmart produce proof...it's most likely they are committing a crime and falsely accusing people. People paying out of fear or duress.. that's the same as extortion or blackmail. Walmart is supposed to be a store to shop at...not the local mob. I hope this practice is not still happening to people. They made over 300 million with this tactic. The fact that they falsy arrested her...is a crime in some states. Filing false reports and perjury. I loved the Walmart franchise. After this...not so much. 👎.
I was working at Walmart as the asset protection a few years back when we escorted someone back to our office after a misunderstanding when the self checkout failed The lady was so very polite and went right back to pay for the missed items 2 days later I was fired for not pressing criminal charges and involving law enforcement. Mind you this was a single mother with 2 kids. Walmart will forever be a disgusting stain on retail.
That is exactly what happened to me! The cop didn't even want to arrest me but she didn't have a choice because they were so adamant about pressing charges over about $40 worth of food although the surveillance video clearly showed me scan every single item and the scanner messing up without me noticing. Smh so wrong that they are able to do this to people
Walmart has some nerve. They won't admit wrongdoing even after the trial, and say they have evidence, when they clearly don't. I hope the woman and her family can move on from this. Good for her for not giving in, even though it was a stressful process.
People have a pattern of behavior: And that *_Director of Media_* relations sure likes to run his mouth: ...Really, he's almost on the edge of attempting to push his opinions & beliefs as if it's based on FACT when he mentions "evidence". ...Her lawyer should call him up & pretend to be a reporter to get him to "clarify" his position... ...Could be grounds for a million dollar defamation suit if he slips up & says the wrong thing !!!
Walmart is not the only place. 3 places i worked at during a “team meeting” would remind employees to never admit any wrong doing., or fault. They would even tell us to never say “sorry” “my apologies” or anything along those lines when a customer is angry from being wronged. They do not want any liability for anything, even if they did do something wrong. They couldn’t care less. When there is a lawsuit, they will just put the blame on somebody else. Trust me, these people are heartless, and it shows. They’re parasites that only want money.
Honestly, if we the customers don’t play their little game, it won’t work for them. I always ask them to service me (scan, bag and charge me) I’m not getting any discount to be my own cashier! They hate it but they do it!

When you ask your customers to be your untrained cashiers, they’re going to make mistakes. Walmart needs to be held accountable for these horrible business practices.
Right, Americans aren't capable of doing these type tasks and one state knows it already and prevents self service gas stations. Laws should say all product exchanges in stores, gas stations, EV recharging as a payment card has to be used, purchase of tickets etc. should all be required to go thru properly trained cashiers that do whatever activities necessary, This will also reduce people on welfare due to the large number of people necessary and the great increase in employment will add lots of taxes to the governments while reducing welfare costs.
WOW!! this is an eye-opener. This could happen to anyone. I don’t think I’ll be shopping at Walmart anytime soon. Very scary situation. I’m so glad she won her lawsuit.
About 10 yrs ago, while shopping in grocery section of Walmart, I noticed a man seemed to be on every aisle I went down .. I didnt become alarmed until I left the grocery section to go to shampoo etc area.. when he showed up, across the store, going down each aisle I was on, I was alarmed ...I began looking for an employee and found 2 standing together.. I explained that I was being followed by some man and needed someone to walk me to my car ..right at that moment, the guy walked into view so I said "there he is!" and pointed him out ..they just stood there staring at me, not saying a word ...I said "um hello..that man is following me" and they said "he works here" I questioned this since he had no badge or anything identifying as an employee and why would he be all creepy and follow me? Again, they just stood there, with mouths slightly opened, and never responded to my questions. It wasnt until later that I found out the man was some sort of loss prevention employee... I still feel like he was a creepy guy. I will do almost anything not to shop at Walmart. I have panick attacks and Walmart seems to trigger them ...Im pretty sure I get them because of the horrid lighting, the big space but crowed aisles, the atmosphere is uninviting and negative. Not sure if i can accuratly explain it, but I start to feel like I cant breath. Glad this lady stood up for herself.
@@willow2333 Sadly, when you live in a small town, there's not a lot of options for shopping. I no longer shop there... I actually started having panic attacks anytime I had to stop there... I don't know if it was the harsh lighting or the and unwelcoming environment but everything would start closing in on me and I feel like I couldn't breathe. I will go anywhere, to any store, to not have to shop there again
@@alwaysfoxes sorry … you are right… there are 3 super centers within 8 miles of my house… besides multiple other groceries and department stores… I have a large choice where many have nothing
The only time I ever do self-checkout is if there's a store that that's the only option even then I don't like it I always pay by cash I know that some stores are no longer taking cash only cards
@@billjones8950 I'm one of those old fashioned dummies I only pay by cash, you need to give yourself a Pat in the back you're one of the Smart Ones unlike me, by the way are you the bill Jones that is a mixed martial arts instructor?
Good for her. Corporations are quick to stick it to us whenever they can even if they’re in the wrong. $2.1 million is a drop in the bucket for Walmart, but I’m glad she fought back.

@@curttaylor6237 Hey, check out my username: I'm quick to defend businesses most of the time. But that "Civil Recovery Program" was a bit too much like crony capitalism to me, not the real kind. Sometimes the corporations have to lose in order to stop questionable practices and get them back on the straight & narrow.
Of the $300,000,000 collected by Walmart, do you think even a single penny went towards giving a raise to even one employee? Or do you think Walmart pocketed it for themselves?
nobody forces you to go there. People still need self-checkout because it's faster. One cashier booth occupies the same space of 3 to 4 self-checkout machines.
Everybody needs to sue walmart. Those door greeters too. They see you paying and still stop and accuse you of stealing. Time to put Wally world out of business
"We don't believe the verdict is supported by the evidence"?? Oh the evidence they refused to provide🙄 I'm glad she won her case! They obviously have a history of this with their customers. Walmarts level of greed is incomprehensible🤦🏾♀️

@@doracampos2088right on! Watching has brought the importance of that to my attention. And that's if I have no choice but to shop there. As it is, the Walmart that used to be one bus ride away got closed down and other stores are a lot more transit-friendly than the nearest Walmart to me now. No love loss _there!_
@@doracampos2088, that's not what this is about at all. Self checkout is the only thing I ever use bc I don't want or need to be some cashier's temporary therapist. Being autistic it drains me to talk to too many people. Self checkout is a beautiful thing, it's not a game. 🤦
Did you pay any attention to the obvious here? She is not a member of the "privileged" in society today so they went after her. Had she been of the other group, Wal-Mart would have run like a scalded dog in the opposite direction! It is revealing that NONE of the Wal-marts that are closing all across the country that are in "privileged" neighborhoods tried to arrest and recover their losses. Something is very obvious here. Great that the young lady gave Walmart a kick in the groin for their stunt!
@@dcg590 lol found the walmart employee if she was so wrong why did walmart have to pay out lol. walmart is going to be sued into nothingness i guess that is why they are closing more and more stores lol. especially in liberal democrat ran places because they can no longer call cops on shopliefters real ones lol. so there like we out lol. walmart knows how shitty they are.
Its interesting that they withheld the video that would have proved her innocence, because this is something that government prosecutors do, and they get away with it. They withhold exculpatory evidence routinely, so that they can railroad people through the legal system and they do this because they have prosecutorial immunity. That needs to change. They can and have ruined many people’s lives with no repercussions, even after the person was found to be innocent. Sounds to me like Walmart is reading from the same playbook.
“We do not believe the verdict is supported by the evidence.” Do you mean the video evidence you refused to bring forth that would have shown she did not shop lift. What a bunch 🐕💩
The police do this all the time. Arrest innocent people and get away with it. People are forced to take plea bargains to avoid expensive trials. Never believe a criminal record.
Imagine that she gets arrested for $48 worth of groceries and now Walmart has to pay back 2.1 million. People don’t understand a simple mistake like arresting someone who was totally innocent in the first place can tarnish ur reputation in many ways. Shame on u Walmart.
Loss prevention's budget should not eclipse the loss rate. That's bad business. If you treat your customers like criminals then they'll shop elsewhere.
If I got falsely arrested for theft of $48 worth of goods then won $2.1 million in a settlement, I'd be in Walmart buying stuff all day, every day, and hoping it happened again.
They don't care, they've don't the math and have collected 314 million intimidating people with charges so they can collect 200 bucks from everyone falsely accused of shoplifting.
Lol 2.1 million. Walmart makes 1.4 million a day. This means absolutely nothing to them. Let’s accuse 10 people for 20 dollars to lose 2 dollars to 1 person. Walmart is happy they made 18 dollars. You would be too. Life is a numbers game, they clearly understand. It’s business baby.
They only go after people who are honest and truthful, but they don't have the balls to go after the thugs who rob the store blatantly. This is what Walmart deserves.
If the verdict isn't supported by the evidence then why didn't Wal Mart show the evidence in court? Because it would exonerate her. The judge needs to order her record expunged so it won't be on her record and damage her in the future.
It doesn't matter it will still show up for any job she applies to. She would have to have the record sealed not just expunged. It did ruin her ability to work forever! She deserved the money!
@@prettywoman7776 Nurse is her last name, not her profession. But I agree with you that she deserves the money because, whatever her profession, she's now going to have trouble.
Exactly. They save a LOT of money by making us check ourselves out. Their own trained cashiers sometimes make mistakes. But they expect the customer to be perfect when we do a job we're not trained for.
Was at a small town grocer other day and this eldery lady in line looked at me and said "id rather pay $5 for milk than unload walmarts trucks for them." 🤷♂️
@@-in-the-meantime...how we are treated goes a long way. When I lived in Jacksonville, Arkansas, I went to this Mail Boxes Etc. for all my mail services and wouldn't go to the post office there because of how rude the personnel at the post office were. On the flip side, the lady at the Mailboxes Etc. I went to all the time with *so very kind!*
@@-in-the-meantime...haha thats what next, you have to unload the truck and stock the shelf then check yourself out then go restock the shelf. I hate walmart soooooo much.
"We don't believe the verdict is supported by the evidence." Can't believe they had the gall to say that. What evidence? They didn't even show up to court or produce a video tape from the machine. They know they're lying and still defaming this woman. Seriously, gfy Walmart.
I had one of their loss prevention people run after me screaming that I was trying to shoplift the Magic the Gathering cards she was holding. I scanned them to see how much they were, put them back and went to leave. I actually had to point out the fact that since she's holding them I obviously can't be shoplifting them... Idiocy
Agree as long as we are willing to believe her story is true. I think it is but you just never know, even well spoken, seemingly good people aren't always as they seem.
@@ChadSteele_Video We aren't talking about the corporation here to be fair, we are talking about the legal team representing the corporation. I can tell you that the world isn't as frozen solid as it seems, especially these days. I can tell you from first hand knowledge, that several corporations that get a constant beating, don't necessarily deserve it. The laws that govern what a corporation is and isn't liable for, directly reflect how they have to operate. If you owned a business I would hope that it be your goal to always try and look out for the customer. The reality sets in though when you realize the limitations you have legally, as well as how quick an individual can try to bring you down. From that view it can be a very unproductive world by default. It's not always about direct intent to screw people over.
@@xaviermccloud4586 Just because it was a jury trial doesn't mean anything. I've heard of cases where the presiding judge in a case overturned the jury verdict immediately after the verdict was read because he thought it was excessive. And Walmart has a certain amount of time to file an appeal of the verdict. Verdicts are overturned all the time on appeal, they aren't written in stone.
Glad she did not pay the proposed $200 settlememt fee. A criminal charge on a person's record can be very damaging to a person in numerous ways. Walmart is a huge company with very deep pockets & very aggressive legal experts working for them. I am glad this customer fought Walmart and won her case. That is a rare occurance. ❤😊
I was once accused of shoplifting at a Walmart and then challenged to a fist fight by their asset protection person. The level of idiot at these stores is groundbreaking.
@@spideysensestimewasted3692 What are you even saying here? The employers are the ones who sent out the "civil recovery" letters. Worse, actually. They partnered with other organizations to create the program in the first place. An extra-judicial extortion racket. And you think we shouldn't blame them? FOH
The same happened to my sister. Walmart said she needed to pay them $500 and take "their" anti-theft class or they would press charges. The cashier failed to scan 1 items and she was arrested for that. Horrible scam by Walmart!!
I'd say, "You'll call the cops, and I'll call my lawyer." See how far that gets. I don't even think they do ANYTHING when it's under a few hundred dollars, anyway. Plus, their store is SET UP for crackheads to steal everything and sell it or buy drugs in the parking lot, as I heard it. "The Least of us," Quinones book. Library has it. Which is EXTREMELY WRONG. Thieves should be sitting in jail or picking up trash off the street, earning a living for once.
Crazy to think that their very own Walmart employees Who are properly trained, but still do not know how to scan these items. Yet they want all the customers to do their own check out without any type of formal training. Do not be surprised when people Forget to scan items 😖
Just dealt with this last month. Police held me for hours outside of Walmart in MD for a the receipt. I explained to them my items are no longer the property of Walmart. The manager asked which register I was on I told her. She reprinted my receipt. All items accounted for. Then they took my belongings returned them and told me I was trespassing. And if I shop at Walmart again I will be arrested. I have it all recorded and was with my children and grandchild. All because they don't have bags big enough for cases of baby wipes, a baby gate, pampers and a few other things I picked up for my grandson. The police officer took her badge off refused to give me her name. I had to call the police request assistance for false imprisonment. I was going to let it go. Hell no I moving forward with this. They can not treat ppl this way.
I called "corporate" because of some similar bullshit and they told me the same trespassing line of bull shit...at that point I had never taken an item out of Walmart without purchasing it first now I purposely cost them money every chance I get.
This blows my mind the fact that they made a legit innocent person go through this but they will gladly let real thieves steal hundreds and thousands of dollars right out the door and watch them. This is sickening. I'm glad she got what she deserved and patiently waited for. Well I guess Walmart learned that Karma is a b*tch 😂😅
Totally agree. I feel like the system, either Walmart as an individual company or the legal system, goes after an honest citizen fast while letting real criminals loose. I guess it is easy to go after an honest person, who does not want trouble.
i was on probation for a year for falsely being accused of shoplifting at walmart. i had forgot about the large package of paper towels at the bottom of the shopping cart and before i even walked out i started walking back to pay for it but they jumped me and called the police. i hate walmart with all my heart but since i live below the poverty line, it’s pretty much the only place i can shop! i have never been to that walmart so i travel an extra 10 minutes across town to the other one to shop. good for this woman for fighting back! i should have.
Yeah sorry that happened, there was a time when cashiers would've looked at your cart to see fi they missed anything or asked, now since it's almost always automated now and cashiers are lazy beyond all reality..
Better to double check those prices. Their "reputation" for low prices is far too often a lie. Also, only buying from that parasitic behemoth puts everyone else out of business, and that's what everyone is left with..
It would be interesting to know how many customers like myself have stopped shopping at Walmart altogether. As a law abiding citizen these stories of false arrests have impressed on me that shopping at Walmart is not worth the risk. I am glad this women stood up for herself and won her suit. Shame on Walmart
@@akihikosakurai4013 let's take a step back. Think about what is being presented and how it's worded. The only time they would need to show the video is at a court hearing. She wasn't accused of stealing 1 or 2 things. She stole several items to include Christmas lights. She won the lottery when Walmarts rep didn't show up to court. For all we know the rep may have hated his job and decided not to show. The accused did what any sane person would do and asked that the charges to be dropped. The court figured the Walmart rep didn't care enough to show so their isn't a case therefore ruled "not guilty" by default. She had a legal rep that saw this as an opportunity to sue the crap out of Walmart. She was more than likely guilty of stealing being it was multiple items but ends up with a massive payday due to Walmart legal rep that happened to not show that particular day.
@@ufarkingicehole once again, what proof does anyone have of her guilt? Walmart didn’t produce any evidence during discovery, didn’t even show up for the court hearing. You are defending a multibillion dollar company because you’re jealous or something? There is no evidence because it didn’t happen. There are cameras all over Walmart, if they had anything it would have been a slam dunk case.
I think it's a case of poor training. These guys don't know what to look for and automatically think there's theft. That's their job so when you're a hammer everything looks like a nail.
Honestly, if we the customers don’t play their little game, it won’t work for them. I always ask them to service me (scan, bag and charge me) I’m not getting any discount to be my own cashier! They hate it but they do it!
Wow they found another income stream: 300+ million dollars from wrongfully accused people of shoplifting?! Criminal. It totally looks like common practice. They ruin those people’s life for pure greed.
I remember buying 4 blacklights once, used the self checkout. The guy stopped me at the door, accused me of stealing them, demanded to see the reciept. Showed it to him, He said "there's no blacklights listed on here! You stole them!" We go back to the self checkout, and he scanned one. It came up as "24 inch tube light", which, guess what, there was 4 on my reciept. He let me go.
The guys at door checking receipts are nearly all people with severe learning disabilities. I am surprised he could even read. Just keep walking ..stopping you at door is illegal. It's used to intimidate.
What is the appropriate response? My husband was floored when we stopped at an out-of-state Sam’s club when the ‘greeter’ demanded to see his Sam’s club credit card to even enter the store! She asked if he was a member. He thought, why else would I be here?? In Virginia, she was a black female and he white oppressive male, so makes sense..smh.
@@stickerlady1774 But you do have to show a card as a member. Just like Costco. Stop trying to make a Black woman seem racist when she was only doing her job. Why else would she be there?
Just looking at how that lady presents herself there is no way she shoplifts. You can tell right away she’s innocent and Im so happy for her. She stood up for herself and got blessed for it. Way to go! 🎉
@@chrisdurham1144 The scanner was malfunctioning and she didn't leave until after an associate assisted her with scanning all of her items. Blame can be placed on the associate or on the scanner, but not on her. You missed a lot
It’s always the big box companies that do this. I bought a plant from a mom and pop store and the cashier forgot to ring it up, when I was checking my receipt when I got home I noticed, and when I called to let them know and offer to pay they just told me to keep the plant, it was like 15$, and this is a local business during Covid. They need that money. Walmart going nuts over 45$, while making around one BILLION dollars a day is just insane. Human greed at its finest with these ceos
My sister was maybe 5 at the time this incident happened, but we went to a Sally’s and she picked up a cheap cardboard mail file while the rest of the fam was shopping. Somehow the sensors didn’t go off in alarm when she walked out with it, and none of us even knew she had it till we got to the car, so my mom brought her back in the store, explained the situation, and the manager let her keep the nail file for being brave enough to be honest and apologize for it. Meanwhile my cousin’s 2 year old little cousin did something similar at Walmart and she didn’t know about it till they got home, so she called Walmart up and the guy on the phone told her not to return the item, even if it’s just to pay for it because according to store policy they’d have to mugshot her son and display it on the bulletin board for everyone to see that he’s a “thief”, file a police report against him and possibly press formal charges, and ban him from the store for life... What tf is wrong with Walmart? They make way more than these other stores yet they tray their customers like sh-t.
So let me get this straight Pater, you stole from a struggling small business that couldn’t afford to be robbed, and now you’re justifying theft from larger businesses because they’re big. You’re a literally the exact reason they do this.
"We don't believe the verdict is supported by the evidence" What evidence? Walmart failed to provide any evidence, hell, they refused to even show up to court! 🤣
I wish she would turn right around and sue them for another 2 million dollars for continuing to libel her as a shoplifter even after she won her first lawsuit!
That asset manager needs to pay the settlement amount. Hope Walmart fired him and sues him to recoup the amount they have to pay. He also should be in prison for filing false charges and false imprisonment and for failing to produce the video of the alleged incident.
I am old, disabled and using the self check out is almost impossible for someone like me. Than, I don’t like paying the high prices to check myself out. Than to top it off, they look for shoplifters from the self checkout area! I am glad this woman won!
I've been a cashier for over 20 years and registers malfunction all the time. If a transaction does not post because of an error, we explain to the customer there was a problem and ask them to run their credit card again. No one ever gets upset. What this woman went through was inexcusable. She should have gotten more!
Those degenerate mega corporations create millions of jobs and feed millions of people, yeah they might not be perfect and be very greedy but I’m more concerned about the greed and corruption from our politicians
Absolutely crazy that this business started from Sam Walton who built prisons for The United States when he was in the Army! Also when the new branch of government started called FEMA the first top 10 Executive came from Walmart how does that happen?
"We don't believe the verdict is supported by the evidence" The THEFT charge wasn't supported by the evidence. The VERDICT was supported by the PEOPLE. This says a lot about Walmart.
Oh but the theft was supported by evidence Walmart was guilty of theft and blackmail you give us 200 dollars we'll dropped the charges that we have no evidence to charge you with how many millions of dollars did these crooks make using this extortion racket!
Walmart has always hired, targeted and threatened the poor. Can you imagine collecting 314 million extra from your customers with dirty underhanded schemes.
Walmart does not hire, targeted, threatened the poor. Could they do better you bet. But, unless they can see into your bank account, that statement is ridiculous. And I've known Wealthy people that have drove in an old looking vehicle and I have known poor people to drive a fairly newer vehicle. Accusations Doesn't matter unless the facts add up.
When I was a Police Officer we had a Walmart in our City. Walmart always thought they were above the law. When I had calls there for shop lifting. I would not cite or arrest until I saw the video of the person shop lifting. If I didn’t see a person shop lift. I would tell the loss prevention person that they could get the person’s information and go to the courthouse and take out a criminal summons (NOT A WARRANT) but a criminal summons for the person they are accusing. I never arrested just on hearsay. Again! Walmart thinks they are above the law because they are so big. Thank GOD the jury saw the truth and awarded this woman what she got.
Bravo. You deserve every cent. These false filings are the reason Walmart is loosing money at the self- checkouts!! The verdicts cost them more than hiring more cashiers. A very unfriendly way to run a business.
@nothing yep, we just saw they have collected 314 million from these types of charges so 2 million isn't even a loss, the entire case was nothing but a minor inconvenience.
Highly doubt this is an honest "it didn't scan". But hey, congrats, walmart now has a policy that they have to just let shoplifters walk out. Thanks for that.
Why doesn't Walmart have cashiers to check out people? Mistakes made when "self checkout" are not the customer's problem, as the customer is not a professional working on behalf of the corportation. Stop outsourcing your labor to the customers Walmart!
@@2A.Freedom Damn are you a shareholder or something. How do you know it didn’t scan, and if it didn’t great produce the video and prove her wrong. People be for companies that don’t give 2 💩’s about them. Go be a cashier then to cut down on these horrendous atrocities against Walmart 😂😂😂
Unfortunately I heard of this happening to an old lady who had been trying to buy something and the cashier failed to scan one item that was given to her, yet the old woman was the one who was arrested and charged. Abuse of power indeed.
And don't forget about the 73 year old lady in Aurora CO. Because walmart mishandled her the cops broke her arm and dislocated her shoulder and cuffed her behind her back in that condition FOR SIX HOURS and denied her treatment and laughed about it where she could hear them. It's called torture. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AEEhmgmAMns.html
There are cameras on all those cash registers. That should have been caught by the loss prevention person before the police were called, but in the event it went to court, she would have been cleared.
I've noticed that over here in the UK our Walmart stores "Asda" overcharge for lots of items that you wouldn't notice if you weren't scanning the items yourself. They maker millions every year on these as well. This is straight up stealing from their customers so I have no sympathy for them when actual shoplifters steal from them.
Good for her. I used to manage an organization that would allow people to work off court sentences via community service. About half of them were Walmart shoplifters - one lady charged with less than $5 of makeup left in her cart, and once a bag of candy the cashier dropped and put in the bag without scanning. One young man was arrested for buying vanilla because he was too young to buy alcohol - it's in the baking section. Every one of them offered to pay for the items, but instead Walmart said no. I haven't shopped in Walmart since 1986 due to their predatory practices and will never step foot in another one .
They also promote their worst employees to store managers...who then treat both customers and employees horribly. I know several people (a couple are family members) who have worked for Walmart, and every one of them had store managers who were power-tripping, abusive asshats who had no clue how to do their job.
I was accused of stealing at Walmart when I was 15. My brother just got his first pay check and wanted to get me something nice. I picked a beautiful white dress. He also insisted on stockings and shoes as well. They took us into the back room, dumped out my purse on the floor and then took our items out of the bags and threw them on the floor as well. When I said, “Aw my pretty little dress 😢” the guy said, “huh? This shitty little dress?” Then stepped on it and told me I could pick it up and that he’d wait. Obviously he didn’t find anything. Even after practically making my brother strip down! Then told us to leave and not come back. They sent me a letter to pay $300 or they press criminal charges. I was young and scared so I begged my grandma to help me pay it. Walmart is and will always be trash 🗑 In my mind, my money is hers now. I’m glad it’s going to good use. Even if it’s 13 years later
I’m very sorry that happpened to you. Hearing these horror stories of Walmart makes me feel good that my dad never took me and my brother to Walmart. We stuck to Kroger, target and fiesta. Walmart seems to be taking advantage of the anxiety people get when accused of crimes. It’s also funny how Walmart employees and security do nothing when a person walks through the door and the alarm goes off but love to accuse people who paid and have a bag and receipt of theft 😬
Having worked at Walmart a number of years ago I can tell you it’s one of the most backward, dysfunctional places I’ve ever worked, so much so that I seriously considered filing a lawsuit against them for several different management practices and behaviors. Glad to see this lady get justice.
Their checkers aren't very friendly but I can see why working for Walmart. They never have enough checkers and don't care if people are lined up to the middle of the store. If you have ice cream its melted by the time you get home.
I worked there too and nothing is worse for employee morale than 4 different assistant managers making rounds to your department and telling you 4 different things to do at once, all the while getting mad and threatening to write you up because you do not possess the ability to clone 4 of you to do the work on one paycheck. I quit while I still had my dignity.
About 40 years ago when my brother was 2 he took a pack of gum from the grocery store. My mom marched him back there and made him apologize to the store and hand it over. I think a store like Wal Mart probably would have called the police on him.
That happened to me, too! When I thought my son took a toy at Walmart, I did that as well. I thought the woman was going to call the cops on us, and I deeply regretted the lesson he got taught that day. They were assholes!
@@sgtmomOKit doesn't surprise me that they treated you that way even though you took responsibility for a wrong (or a perceived wrong). I mistakenly walked out of a Walgreens one-time with an unpaid item (the other items were paid for and it was just overlooked), and in a panic I headed straight back and told them what happened, and paid for it. Thankfully, Walgreens and Walmart are not to be confused with one another. The person at the counter appreciated my honesty and rung it up without any incident.
Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️ *What is the Gospel?* The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Romans 10:9 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. JESUS CHRIST can come anytime! Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS
I got to remember that line. Defendant: "Your honor, we don't believe the verdict is supported by the evidence". Judge: "Please provide us with your evidence". Defendant: "We can't show you the evidence, you just have to believe us."
Exactly. This is just a side hustle with Walmart. Imagine with all the self checkouts folks who will bolster their bottom line as they have to use self checkout due to WM hiring less employees. Not only are they saving money, they’re making bank. Evil I reckon!
@@alexapuerta No. He is talking about the defendants. The woman, who filed the lawsuit against Walmart, is the plaintiff. The defendants (Walmart et al.) are the ones that refused to provide evidence to back up their claim that Nurse was shoplifting.
