Over the weekend, my brother and I were talking about things we have seen and heard at the local Publix. One of his friends is a manager at the store near his home, and she had this to say.
A couple came into the store to do some shopping and while doing so, he told her he needed to go look for something on another aisle. He went over to the office supply aisle and picked up a calculator. Well, this friendly manager just happened to see him, while dressed in plain clothes (no ID or uniform, of course), take a calculator from the shelf, open it up, and then shoved it into his pants! He then took the box the calculator came in and shoved it way into the back of the shelves so nobody would see it. She (the manager) decided to discreetly follow this guy as well as have someone keep an eye on the wife.
About twenty minutes later, the wife was ready to check out, and this is when the husband decided to follow her. One person was in the check out line ahead of this couple, and one of the other managers as well as the cashier was doing everything possible to stall this customer. Just then, after this customer was through, my brother's manager friend came up and loudly said, "Sir, with that calculator you have stuffed down in your pants, I thought perhaps you would also like to take the box it came with!", as she was holding the box in his face at him. He was redder than a lobster, either because he was embarrassed, or he was angry he had been caught. She then told him that he would either pay for it being it was now a calculator that touched his manhood, or she would call the police for shoplifting. Needless to say, he paid for the calculator.
I love the word "justice"!
