[Paper Boi]

did you listen/read their earnings call?

or do you like jumping to conclusions that fit your world view?

yes i did

did you?

maybe they're making money?

The stated source of the closures was that their stores can’t produce adequate profit margins with high theft rates you got damn buffoon theft being a prohibitive detriment to making money is the whole narrative being addressed in the tweets.

Do you actually even try to critically think before you post or do you just blurt out the first bit of nonsensical babble that hits your little pea ass brain

 

[jilla82]

yes i did

did you?

what did it say?

I didnt read it (im actually a full time investor) because I dont believe every company is lying about crime...
its common sense

why would residents lie about crime in that area and in wholefoods?

I could go on for days with videos and reddit threads talking about the nonsense they see in that area

Corporations lying with the intent to cook the books and maximize profits while pushing dangerous and bigoted rhetoric

Major news outlets not doing any actually journalism and letting said corporations' lies go on with no factchecking

interesting.

things may have changed and maybe you're correct, but when I worked retail, I specifically remember asking why we file police reports for someone stealing shyt if we have insurance on it and I was told we specifically reported it to the police for the insurance claims. so I find it interesting that stores wouldn't report it for the insurance money.

I could see the argument that some employees are just not reporting the shoplifting they see, some of it is going undetected until they do inventory, but I still am not completely buying the disparities. it's odd that the executives, who may have made bad decisions on where to put stores, do not need to provide proof for these things.

I'm sure it hasn't changed much at all. Right now in retail pharmacy if a patient tells me they need me to call their insurance company to get an early refill override for a stolen prescription (control or non-control) the first thing the insurance rep is gonna ask for is the police report info.

So whats they end game for target making up claims about the rate of shoplifting.

I know it's not this the same folk that let man use women bathrooms /sarcasm

but real talk is it a type of insurance fraud?

It's always about the shareholders. If they ain't making the money that is projected they have to find a way to make the shareholders happy or in this case convince them you didn't screw up where you decided to locate a store.

it’s also common sense that executives would use the current focus on crime and shoplifting to cover up their own failures and bad business decisions.

if that isn’t common sense to you then i’d say you’re brainwashed or naive about how these people operate.

I can’t speak to the whole foods one, don’t know enough about it

the people that live in the area are lying?

posting one anecdotal video about a shoplifting incident =\= substantiating the corporate claims that crime is the sole or even primary culprit of complete closure…as obviously any half way competent person would understand that next to no box retail chain will experience 0 shoplifting while operating in a city


what kind of clown ass thought process is this?

Poor areas don't make as much money for Target. Amazon has it locked and Walmart has what's left of retail stores

 

[Left.A1]

your argument is drugs/crime isnt an issue in that area?

the argument is that as any competent non corporate bootlicking individual can clearly see by the diagrams posted in that tweet … CRIME… isn’t motivating these closures and these companies have blatantly lied to willfully gullible idiots like yourself…to great effect apparently

btw...you know you can make a point with out smiles yea?

Btw you know you can actually utilize some critical thinking before responding as to avoid fashioning yourself as completely incompetent yea?

dumb ass is taking quotes from reddit to heart but won’t believe the data posted in the tweets



just a cult of incompetence …complete corporate bootlicker lmao

 

[Absolut]

Look at all these moronic ass excuses the whites are making up for these corporations blatantly lying


“Buhhh Buhh Buhh whaddddabout the fact that they’re stealing high prices TVs at one Target but not the others!”


The kind of logic that only a dumb ass inbred whiteboy would present in a public space

What’s the excuse when your elders have to hop on buses to go get groceries or prescriptions because the store near them closed up? “Yea grandma they might have closed but they lying was only 250 reported shopliftings there”
