Retailers Prefer Shoppers Who Have Taken a Shoplifting Class

Tis' the season for shoplifting. Unfortunately as beautiful as the holiday season is, this is the time of year when almost 30% of shoplifting occurs. We all like to give those we care about awesome gifts. For some, this also means stealing what you cannot afford.

Before breaking the law, I encourage each of you to take a stop theft class. Of course I am biased, because as a teacher of both in class and online theft classes, and as a former compulsive thief myself, I have a personal interest in the subject.

Professionally, my vested interest is in you getting caught. You being arrested for a theft-related offense means potential business for me. That I like.

More importantly though, I want the opportunity to have you in class or in my office, so that I can help counsel you on how to stop your problematic behavior. I want to help you stay on the straight and narrow and avoid shoplifting again.

Because people who take stop theft classes have a less chance of stealing again, retailers promote stop theft classes. Many retail employers mandate their new employees take an online theft class.
