Dear (accused but rightly so) shoplifters:
1. Playing the race card not only makes me cranky but also makes me inclined to be racist.
2. Bringing your 'posse' into the store to yell threats at me does not scare me. Especially when (utterly useless) security guards are there to witness it.
3. Just because you asked my name doesn't mean I'll give it to you. How stupid do you think I am?
4. You suck. I didn't call security on you because you're aboriginal and you happened to be in the vicinity of the sunglasses. I called security on you because I had just counted the stock of my sunglasses and made sure there were no gaps and after you were there, there was a gap. What am I meant to think? You could have been as white as my father and just as old, I still would have called security.
5. When I apologised to you, I wasn't saying sorry for inconveniencing you, I was apologising for the fact that you got away with it.
I don't normally use horrible internet lingo but go DIE IN A FIRE!
Some days. I fucking hate my job.
I would like to say a big thank you to the lovely customer who held me by the shoulders and looked into my eyes and told me that I did nothing wrong. You're a wonderful woman and I will shower you with free stuff whenever you come into my store.
