I use self-checkout because I see 5 or 6 Walmart employees standing around doing nothing on their phones and avoiding customers with 2 check out lanes open and 10 people in both lanes.
you could have a product in your hand, get triggered and disoriented and go for safety. But if you are prone frequently like this guy to doing that, you accommodate yourself by having a companion or ordering online....i wonder how many times he didn't get caught.
the problem with the walmart here where i live is most of their cashiers are either new or the slowest they have, so you stand there waiting or self checkout , and nope i haven't steal anything because of that, shame on people who use this as a excuse to steal.
IMO Walmart cashiers work 8 hours and get paid for about 4 hours after taxes and fees like paying into insurance. So any cashier you see may just be so new, that it will take them a bit longer to learn to go a bit faster. Also remember customers do not know cashier codes like Check BOB to make sure it is empty. BOB stands for "Bottom Of Basket" A cashier after complete scanning every item, the register shows a pop up. "Did you Check BOB? and is BOB empty? Yes/No buttons. It's a reminder to check under the shopping cart. Most people forget there is stuff on the bottom of the basket. Like a large amount of water or a 50 pound bag of dog and/or cat food.
@@zackamania6534 i never said it's their problem, i just don't get why they don't pay a little more for faster and experienced people and leave those sloth doing those other jobs on the back.
ok, so this guy willfully did it and he is blaming the system? even if he had PTSD before his arrest...that doesn't excuse stealing, people with PTSD know right from wrong..even if something happens and they have a panic attack and accidentally leave without paying ONCE, they fix it...they don't keep stealing
He's yt so yea of course he's a victim.. I'm shocked he didn't say 'My yt privilege meant that I didn't know the consequences of my behaviour, therefore I shouldn't be charged'
Surprised he got away with it so many times at target, after watching that one takedown comp that came out years ago you’d think they’d be chasing em down… guess not
Lol they put self check out to cut costs but increased costs. That lawyer needs to stop. Once maybe, twice he may have made a mistake. But 9 times? I get mine delivered or I pick up.
if you need to be 'trained' to scan products, you shouldn't be unsupervised......I've had SCOT double charge me a couple times.....I forgot an item ONCE, but found it before I left the parking lot and went back in and paid.
Sell checkout is for thieves and EVERYBODY knows it. I'd rather wait for a human to help me, bag my groceries and ask me how my day was. My cousin works for Safeway for loss prevention and he said people have a technique to stealing. They scan 2 items and pretend they're scanning 50 more. He said that not one employee checks the receipt. They just walk out. I'd rather wait for an employee than go to jail. Those machines DON'T work half the time anyways and you still have to get someone to help you.
Great job with this story. Gotta get those DEI numbers up, even if you have to reach for it. You couldn't find someone of his complexion leading a criminal conspiracy?
@@m4m4b0y2 Your comparison of leaving my door intentionally unlocked and a business using self checkout machines doesn’t reason out. When businesses use these machines it’s an attempt to save money. It’s not safety issue as with your leaving my door intentionally unlocked which is to do with safety and security. Try again pls.
I think we should ALL refuse to use self check out if there is a possibility of going to jail for making a mistake. About 6 months I had put a cake under my cart because I didn't want it to get damaged. I got out to my car and realized I had forgotten to pay for it. I went back in and paid. I could have been arrested for a simple mistake. After seeing this I will not be using the self check out any longer.
Okay, but six hundred in merchandise seems a little schetchy. I understand people can make mistakes. I have realized that after getting out to my car that I forgot to scan an item about 6 months ago because it was under the cart. I went back in and paid for it and it was only about 8 dollars. But six hundred over a period of time? 🤔
I hear it costs more for the losses due to shop lifting than it would to hire cashiers.....but i prefer self checkout.....germy people have been handed items to cashiers who then pass the germs on to the next customers products......if people had decent hygiene it wouldn't be so bad...but people sneeze and cough into their hands, don't wash after the bathroom, etc.....
With the number of things taken, this guys is either an idiot or a thief. There are plenty of professional people that steal for the thrill of it. I worked as a self check attendant back when they were new and there was a prison guard that came in regularly and used the self checks. He tried to steal every single time he came in. He also was always in when LP wasn't in store, almost like he was watching them. At first I would go over to him and pretend he forgot something and make sure it all got rung in. Then I just started to remotely freeze the machine and enter the things he was trying to steal. I'm sure he got away with stuff when I wasn't working, but he never did with me. He would do things scan 1 and try to bag 2 or 3, or put nicotine gum on the scale with the bar code up and then put apples on top of it and type in the code for apples so it weighed the gum with the fruit and the bagging scale wasn't set off when he bagged it. Finally management got so tired of him, they let him steal and then met him outside the store as he was leaving. They had planned on pressing charges, but he had his daughter with him that day. So they took the unpaid for goods, took his picture, and let him know the only reason he wasn't leaving in the back of a patrol vehicle was because of his child and if he ever stepped into any of our chains again he would be arrested. That was the last time I ever saw him.
I say if they're going to let criminals steal what they want with no repercussions why should the rest of us law abiding hard working tax paying citizens follow the laws?
@@vanessab.6682 and I completely understand where you're coming from but honestly where is that going to get us if we don't stand up and do something or start acting in the same manner? I'm all for honesty, hard work and integrity but at some point all we're doing is feeding these people for free off of the sweat from our brows.
This guy must be a Democrat; he is a thief and a liar, and should have been suspended from his job. What a lame excuse for shoplifting, arrest him, charge him and fine him.

Very true
Oh come on, u but that much and dont notice they dont ring up? Hes lying.
He’s unable to effectively use a self-checkout, is he able to tech college courses?
What can you expect from self checkout? It's a field day for all shoplifters
has NOTHING to do with self checkout. accountability people
PTSD Doesn’t make you steal. He’s a thief pure and simple. A clown 🤡 on top of that.

@@110311DONTWANTCHANNE If he's having the same PTSD episodes while he's teaching .... and other functions in his life, ok. If not he's a thief
Emotional distress why he is even driving ,killer on the road
It could never be personal accountability
Nope it never is and it seems to be the root of a lot of problems we are having right now in society. Excellent comment 👍🏻.
Yeah.... he's a professional victim
I’ve been using a self checkout for the last ten years. I work hard and I make sure I pay for every single thing in my cart
because you're not very smart
Criminals teaching criminal justice classes 🤣🤷❌. Just like the prisoners running the asylum
When you are a victim, nothing is your fault.
Right ❤❤
He's guilty
Best defense is an offense but what a liar he is they have cameras and the Ptsd claim is bogus
his audacity is crazy 😂 you’re the thief yet he gets a sit down interview? this would not be happening if he was a poc
The South Park episode continues
Self check out is the best thing to ever happen at Walmart...
Yes 😂👍
Thief
one time is an accident, but 3 or more times its actually stealing

Shame on you for crapping on Walmart workers

Slow service has never made me steal anything.
I'm homeless, I ain't shoplifting.
Wait until you get more desperate..
It's just getting harder and harder to survive...
@@Network126 dude I've been homeless for 8 years. What you call desperation I call weakness.
I forgot something in my shopping cart,🤷🏿♂️🇯🇲👍🏿 but I was too embarrassed to go and bring it back
I’ll be honest, I’ve been frustrated at the machine and just threw it in my basket
ok, so this guy willfully did it and he is blaming the system? even if he had PTSD before his arrest...that doesn't excuse stealing, people with PTSD know right from wrong..even if something happens and they have a panic attack and accidentally leave without paying ONCE, they fix it...they don't keep stealing
He's sorry that he got caught 🤣🤦💯👎. Call it like it is
Cancel self checkout and put cashiers back, give them back their work. Some customers will always be evil.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
SCO is not a labor saving device. It allows the store to redirect the labor, such as online grocery (pickup/delivery) efforts
❤❤❤
It’s because everything is so expensive and people are broke
Exactly. I'm homeless in my car full of mechanical problems trying to work rideshare and delivery gigs. You do what you gotta do..
I use self check out because I never have that many items. The check out system does make mistakes.
He's yt so yea of course he's a victim..
I'm shocked he didn't say 'My yt privilege meant that I didn't know the consequences of my behaviour, therefore I shouldn't be charged'
He should go after this news station too because they just accused him of “pilfering”!
Surprised he got away with it so many times at target, after watching that one takedown comp that came out years ago you’d think they’d be chasing em down… guess not
That's basically copaganda. Just like Wall Street banks are too big to jail.

Duh. Fewer employees mean fewer employees keeping tabs on what is going on around the store.
I take from Self check out every day

If you ain’t stealing from a Walmart self checkout you ain’t trying!
😂👍

Absolutely!! Self checkout gives a shoplifter an opportunity to steal. It's the businesses fault.
excuse me but stores factor in theft when installing self check outs and its cheaper for them than to pay a cashier

They need to weigh you even if you go to their restroom.
Oh really, you don't say
U know what if I had to be homeless I would go into crime to lol cause that's how u get by lol

Because we are honest. The issue is that it affects us all, because they raise prices to make up for their losses.
