You can also look around any time you go inside a Target or Walmart and see plenty of camera's, plus sometimes some displays showing that there are cameras.

Edit: In addition, we had till assignment at that location. However, there were at least 2 people there at all times who could open the till (Shift lead + assignee), and there was usually more (Managers, other shift leads who were still on shift).



Yes, they are looking for shop lifters.

You notice you shift ground when your comments are challenged? I also enjoy how a thread a about police and cameras turns into everybody suddenly becoming an expert on retail, accounting, and security because they have been in a store before or once worked a minimum wage job and yet have absolutely no idea how the money is handled.

No?

Employees are in the store, and are put under surveillancece along with everyone else.

> yet have absolutely no idea how the money is handled.

No, I definitely know how the money is handled at the restaurant I was at. I don't know the figures for the one individual, but I know how it's handled in general.

If you'd like to email me (it's in my bio) than I can give a run down, but I'm not going to detail something like that in a public forum.

Edit: > everybody suddenly becoming an expert on retail, accounting, and security

I'm not claiming to be an expert. You claimed "There aren’t that many cameras in Texas"

I provided evidence you were wrong. That is all I've done in this thread.

Edit 2: Edit 1 not quite accurate. I also provided an anecdote about what happened to/with a coworker.
