    Pay people more so theft goes down? Fucking never!

    Give body cameras to staff. Sounds perfect

      In Australia Woolies and Coles are artificially jacking prices up, this isn’t about wages but about corporate greed using inflation as a disguise to rip off literally everyone. Instead they should be forced to lower prices.

      Would Coles paying their staff more prevent non employees from stealing?

      I mean, people should get payed more, but what do you expect a single (relatively) small grocery chain to do? Also this is more about protecting staff as they have to be the ones to turn them on when an incident occurs rather than an always-on thing

        In the context of the country this is taking place in, Coles cannot be considered small by any stretch of the imagination

            Probably a large reason inflation is so high too, putting prices up “because inflation” and pulling record profits

                This is happening in Australia, a country almost universally controlled by the ‘left wing’ Labor party on both federal and state levels. The sooner you realize that literally no politician gives a shit about their people, the sooner we can move on from this bullshit left vs. right shitshow and start directing our anger at those responsible for the state of the world (hint; it’s every politician with any amount of power and any large enough corporation. The cunts are all best mates, left wing or right wing.)

                Never forget who the real enemy is. We’re playing so fucking effectively into their little game, and they know it. If only we did.

        This is not a small grocery chain. This is one of the two largest supermarket chains in Australia.

        People can’t afford to shop at those small stores. When I was making $100k I exclusively shopped at locally owned stores. But after being laid off, I can only afford to shop at Walmart and Amazon.

          Coles is part of a duopoly with Woolies in Australia, so… They aren’t small by any means.
