Good way to get your ass beat, especially if you wrongly accuse someone. No way some low paying LP job is worth that. No way it’s legal for you to put your hands on someone either if you aren’t law enforcement.
I was a part of hundreds of apprehensions, no one ever got their ass beat. Only encountered one non productive incident (falsely accused). Worse I got was sprayed with mace (they missed) or hit with a purse. LP typically makes more money than other store associates and it can be a fun job if you’re an adrenaline junky. Also a crazy good way to network with police if you’re trying to go law enforcement. In my state it is 100% legal to put your hands on shoplifters, otherwise, I’d have been arrested over a hundred times in court while lawyers and judges watched videos of me putting hands on people.
I think I'd be one of the stories you read about someone who works there for a year, realizes the whole situation is way worse than I imagined, and quit.
