Blame belongs squarely on the government and liquor and lotteries, they made the workplace unsafe by letting this fester for the last months and not doing anything about it, they empowered criminals and now because someone got hurt they decide they need to act with something that could of been done right off the bat to curb the thefts and now violence. blue_gold_84, The Unknown Poster, JCon and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty Liver Posted November 21, 2019 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 I've seen caged liquor stores in the US that you can't even enter, you give them your money, tell them what you want and they pass it through a slot.....and they're quite prepared to shoot at you if you're dumb enough to harass them. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No surprise, seriously everything is being automated, they keep money in ATM's why couldn't they have a similar setup for booze? ABM's attached to a liquor store with a person filling the order from a secure location in the back, pick your item off a menu, scan your ID, smile for the camera, pay by card, get your booze. Ya know Walmart is probably already working on it.... 🍺 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustamente Posted November 21, 2019 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 (edited) We don't need a cage or armed guards, just enforce the laws 18 and over, no id no alcohol and make sure they can't get in but having secure doors. I would also like to see them implement a id card reader like they had in niteclubs, maybe still do it's been a long time, just in case someone causes trouble in the store, pretty simple to identify the person when your have their id on record. All of this can and should of been done a long time ago, its not like they don't print money selling this stuff.

Brandon Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Not that I would expect the security guard to whoop ass .... but to be that cowardly and to abandon those ladies is terrible. Why the hell is that guy in security if he runs and leaves his people that he's suppose to protect to be in dangers way. What purpose does he have even being there?

I worked for a crappy security company when I was very young. Minimum wage. They hire by volume. Why does every bar in town use their own security? Cause they want people that can handle incidents. LC can afford real security. Much better equipped at the casinos and HSC ER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eternal optimist Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 The terrifying thing is, even if MLCC manages to reestablish security protocol as tough as Fort Knox, these are crimes of opportunity - their next victims will be customers legally purchasing alcohol being attacked in the parking lots on their way to their vehicles.

Wasn't a big problem before this this free for all happened, will it happen sure people get robbed everyday for all sort of things, even know a couple of guys that got rob of their beer leaving a vendor, but when you announce that you will not interfere with people robbing your store, it brings out all kinds of people and eventually the violent one's come along.

The Unknown Poster Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 I’m not sure that will be a big issue. These punks don’t want a fight (most of them) and incidents rose when the word got out that no one would stop them. If you rob people in the parking lot, some of those people are going to fight back. And robbing/assaulting someone is way worse than shop lifting. but if the government is really concerned about that as they once claimed then it would make zero sense not to include outside security patrols. If they don’t, it means they didn’t really think that was an issue when they said it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hit and miss but they did have cameras, metal detectors (which were rather pointless), radio equipment and outside security. It’s as good as the team and sometimes they team was really good. best security I worked for was the Lid nightclub. Extensive surveillance system before everyone else had it. And they paid better for better security. Ownership always had their backs too and a positive relationship (mostly) with police. I briefly worked at Alive and again, you’re as good as your team. And that wasn’t a very good team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatty Liver Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 Ha Ha Subway you lost, instead of spending money on lawsuits maybe it would be smarter for them to put the chicken back in the chicken sandwich and present a better product. The corporate practice of charging more for less drives me crazy, especially when the quality is intentionally diminished.
