Just thought I'd tell everyone what happened to me at work last night.
Starts off I go to work about 11:30pm. Semi-normal day, I have to hang price tags for my 15 hours shift. One of the joys of management. (btw I'm a 3rd shift mgr. at a large grocery store.) Workin away untill about 2:40am when I see a guy I've suspected of shoplifting on numorous occasions. Well I follow him around awhile w/o him noticing me when I sneak up behind him and see him sticking some faygo orange soga down his pants. So I put my hand on his back and tell him he needs to come up front w/ me. He then asks why and I point out the fact that his pants are loaded down. Well he doesn't want to go up fron he wants to walk away. So I grab his arm, he disagreed with that and pushed me and kinda hit me. I figure what the hell at this point and just all out tackle him. We fight our way up towards the front door, running into displays and such, when the other mgr. and a customer see what's going on and help me subdue him. He keeps strugling untill the Police get there and arrest him. All the while stuff is still falling out of his pants. The officer searches him and find 2 pack of slim jims, and a thing of cheese, in addition do the 2 pops and another thing of chees that had fallen out of his pants. I get him to sign the shoplifter admission form which is really stupid of him, he signed away all civil liabilities of the store, employees, etc. Turn out since he fought me the officer charged him with robbery. Class C Felony for about 21 dollars worth of stuff. So that's my excitement for the night. Gotta love it.
