Is anyone bothered by stores that automatically
search your purchases on the way out the exit ?
For some reason it really, really bugs me and I
won't buy anything in stores that do, but every once
in a while, like today, I find that one that never did
it before started to without any notice. Several
that did in the past stopped, for some reason. I
wonder if complaints had anything to do with it,
tho I may be the only one who ever did.


I hate Exit Nazis. When the local CompUSA had one - positioned on the other
side of inner glass doors a mere 10 feet from the cash registers - I'd
*always* keep walking right out the door, waving my receipt.

*Some* times they'd follow and ask me to stop. Those are the times I went
right back in the store and chewed out the manager while positioned where as
many people as possible would hear.

They dropped the Exit Nazi after a year or so. I'm sure it was a lot more
trouble and damaging to their business than it was worth...

Give 'em hell, I say...
