• true, I was thinking more along the lines of a worker spotting you and it being caught by a surveillance camera, so the worker would have to report you or risk losing their job (or worse) for deliberately ignoring it

      Yes, some are taking that risk to spite for the bosses. It’s awesome but still too rare.

        What’s really messed up is that some retailers – like WalMart – have a corporate policy of ignoring shoplifting by employees, the reasoning being that workers are less likely to report labor law violations if they think the boss has dirt on them.

          Yeah I’m not so sure about that for the simple reason they do not need leverage to fire or mistreat an employee. This is only useful for higher-ups as they have more intimate knowledge of the company as well they are more invested in the company and so they are not only needing to be controlled but useful to be controlled instead of simply brushed aside.
