cocobutt's Journal, 08 December 2019

Went to zumba class yesterday. Still love it. Went to the grocery to fill a scrip for our dog and had to wait a long time so I shopped for a greeting card and then found the candy section. Ended up with a bag of Lindt extra dark chocolate truffles, my new weakness. Ate too many of those later in the day. While seated at the pharmacy, the store manager slammed a shoplifter suspect into the chair next to me and they were yelling at each other. I don't know why I didn't run away immediately. I sat there, looking away but listening to the whole incident. The suspect was claiming he was going to go out to his buddy's car to get money to pay for the things I assume he was trying to walk out with. The manager was telling him it was the 3rd time he had stolen from them and that he had even bought him lunch one of the last times. The suspect said he had a job and was getting his life together. The manager wasn't buying it and I don't blame him. The suspect looked pretty rough and this didn't seem like his first rodeo. I saw the cops arrive as I was leaving. So many questions. If you've been caught stealing twice before, why risk it again? If you're really hungry and have no money, why not ask the store manager before you steal if there's some place like a food bank where you can get a free meal? So now the thief will go to jail and his chance of getting a job will be even worse than ever and I assume he'll be in deep debt from fines or having to hire a lawyer. What a mess and no one benefits from this except maybe the prison if it's run for profit.

Wow! That was a front seat to drama for sure! I'm curious - was he shoplifting food?

Bella, it did look like he was holding some food item in a plastic container, like a block of cheese or something. It was a little scary at first (you never know when someone could start firing a gun these days) and then just sad.
