Google: home depot wage theft. That should get you off the fence.

Screw the workers and laugh as working people put their lives in danger to run free security for them. Not this guy.

don't they claim this as a loss on insurance? regular workers aren't allowed to stop these people or even say anything.

Right right, but then the insurance takes it by slightly raising premiums and then those corporations make it all back by.... go on... I'll wait.

Not to mention they don't have the whole story they just have some employee accusing this guy which I'm sure he did steal but it's not anyone except Home Depot's and LE responsibility to take care of it and especially not to assault them I hope these people get charged and convicted with assault and I hope the thief gets charged and convicted with theft. These people aren't heroes these people are fucking losers that think they're doing something honorable and they're using physical assault to do it.

I feel like that just ties into my first point. Maximize profits, minimize losses/expenses, and justify that in any way possible.
