Today, WalMart announced a new initiative to reduce shrink in it's stores, by creating a new position called the Customer Host. The Customer Host is an associate under the Asset Protection Department who will be posted at building entrances and exits, to engage customers and check merchandise, to deter theft and return fraud. They will be equipped with Walkie Talkies to communicate with managers and Asset Protection should something happen. Basically, think beefed-up People Greeter. Less theft and fraud means less shrink and more profit, which means greater return to investors.

That's illegal. Also they can't even legally stop you. They've tried this shit on me so I asked for a manager and when they got there I asked the manager if they were accusing me of a crime and they said "of course not" and started yelling at the person who tried to stop me.

Walmart can be saved.
Sam's Club, however, is a lost cause with its racist, sexist CEO who happens to be a black woman.

A new Walmart near my neighborhood opened up a couple of months ago. They are in my neighborhood's crime reporting division so we get bi-weekly "crime reports" from local PD.
That Walmart has 10 or so "shoplifting" calls per week. And those are the ones who get caught. Incredible.

In general I say fuck Wal-Mart and the ruin they have wrought to this country - but I can not blame them for attempting to stop the flood of thieving niggers from stealing anything not screwed down. On /B there is a common thread posted on preferred techniques to out nigger each other in robbing Wal-mart blind. Walmart bad - niggers worse - old people greeters (who gives a flying fuck).

They can't. The Walmart near me was one of the pilots and I just walked out since there was literally a line of people waiting to have their receipts checked.
This is a horrible idea overall, they'll probably lose more customers than it'll save in shrink and it won't even be viable in areas where Walmart is the only place to shop.

Isn't this the same shit they already do at Sam's Club?

Wal-mart has ridiculous shrink limits at their stores, it's probably around 20-30k per quarter (which is even higher than the margin the store I work at is given per year to be considered profitable). They lost 3 billion dollars worth of product last year.
It could also be employees fucking up stuff like item counts too though. Just imagine all the product that probably gets thrown around these gigantic stores, it's not like all the employees are going to put effort into facing and counting.

Walmart is the reason I started shopping at Whole Foods
I'll pay more to avoid the niggers, homeless people, and Mexican children running wild in the store.
Ten registers and only two have people working at them, and of course the self check out is shut down because it can't function without three employees constantly helping the retards that can't comprehend how to scan and pay for their shit.
All of their fruit and vegetables look like absolute shit.

Will they have them posted at logistics hubs?
NO.

Because Walmart is becoming a dirty word associated with poor people & drug addicts. There are much better chains that retain customers who aren't trying to steal nuggets & frozen pizza.

Two of my local mega walmarts close simultaneously
They're losing market share
Get out while you can

Most shoplifters are actually white millionaires who do it for thrillseeking purposes. Black people are close to last despite being forced to live in marginalized conditions from the get-go. You would know these things instead of relying on bigoted urban legends from stormfront if you had something called an education.

Walmart tries hard to perpetuate the dirtiness association.
Their logo is literally an asshole.

I wont invest in walmart until they improve their customer service. Until then it's a company that is biding its time until a more upscale and competitive retail chain comes along.

Huh, actually wal-mart have been marked as "about to crash" companies, like sony. There's a lot of competition, and with lower and lower transportation costs, people are getting more used to order on-line and stop worrying about doing lines, cashiers and stuff.
If this entire customer host turns out to be another deterrent to go shopping into wal-mart, then it will be yet another nail on their own coffin.
