So you need to declare that you haven’t bought anything, you’re not just free to leave of your own accord? I still really don’t like that. Also I’m curious about the layout. In every box store I’ve been in the last like decade or so, Walmart for example, you couldn’t access the customer service desk without going though a cash or self checkout. The closest to an exception is Home Depot which has the customer service desk before the one way gates that let you into the store proper.
Shops have a right for securities against shoplifters.
Pretty much every customer service area is either near the entrance or right next to the self service area. But in most cases it’s near the entrance and triples as a kiosk and a postal/package pickup spot.
I guess I just feel there should be a presumption of innocence. The layouts that have become commonplace anywhere I’m familiar with seem to lack that. They should have to prove I am stealing, I shouldn’t have to prove I’m not, right?
Nobody is holding you hostage. Nobody is assuming you’re stealing. It’s as simple as “I’d like to go out” “OK”. You don’t have to be searched, or answer 10 questions correctly. You’re not putting any effort into proving something. Just prevents someone from walking out with a bunch of full shopping bags.
