![]() If we're following you, and you get in line to pay for all of your stuff, we're probably going to stop watching you at that point. ![]() this would be my personal favorite if I were going to shoplift: concealing the stuff that you want to steal while you're in line waiting to pay for something else. If you aren't looking at the prices of items and you're just grabbing whatever it is you want off the shelf, it looks like a red flag. make you you actually look like you're shopping. Walking around with a bunch of video games in the bath towels makes what you're about to do fairly obvious. ![]() carrying whatever it is you're going to steal around the store for ages looking for a nice empty aisle to conceal it in. opening packages and putting the item in your bag/pockets/whatever With that rambling out of the way, your question- I'm not sure if LP agencies have a bias, but I'm fairly sure that most of the people that want to do this kind of job are men. Every retail store out there is going to have a policy of "if they try to fight you, let them go," 'cause having an agent get hurt is a far larger loss to the company than the merchandise. There's a lot less physical danger in this job than people think there is- the only reason LP agents get themselves into fights usually is because they want to, and they physically intimidate. I've failed on a few apprehensions 'cause it was just me out there trying to detain a guy that I had no chance of physically restraining, but they've never tried to hurt me, they just ran away. I actually think the fact that I'm a "little girl" works to my advantage in that respect- people generally don't want to hit me. I don't need to tackle shoplifters- I've had people worry about me getting hit and not being able to defend myself, but I've actually never been hit. If you were working in a women's clothing store, you'd DEFINITELY need female LP agents- a big scary dude would be nice as well, at least he and the female LP agent could pretend to be a couple shopping together. I work with a bunch of big dudes that stick out like a sore thumb if they're trying to watch someone stealing makeup, for example. That's ridiculous that they wouldn't even consider you based on that fact. Well I'm a petite girl, and I'm not a secret black belt in anything whatsoever.
