"daytripper" So it makes some sense that the purpose was actually to guard against some insider theft scam. Of course, that they'd stop me to catch their own peeps only ****es me off even more... /daytripper (Righteously Indignant) IJ--was surprised to learn how many problems stores with insider theft. Local Wall Mart opened and had to replace 30% of their insider cashiers within a month. They were not scanning some items or changing prices to benefit their friends. Now the store has mounted small cameras above each cash register to help eliminate this problem. Perhaps we should be ****ed off with our citizenry.

Now the store has mounted small cameras above each cash register to help eliminate this problem. Perhaps we should be ****ed off with our citizenry. This problem could be solved with those radio-frequency-emitting microchips that are apparently going to start finding their way into all consumer merchandise (among other things) over the next few years. Done right, the manufacturer, shipper, and retailer could use the things for supply chain management, but they would be turned off permanently when scanned at the register. Any that weren't disabled would set off an alarm at the exit of the store (and could even be traced afterward). Trick, of course, is being sure the "turned off permanently" bit is enforced. JR
