Maybe so, but anyone who goes into a Costco thinking theyll get out in two minutes must have $hit for brains.
Secondly, , you cant go OUT the IN just because youre running late. What the checker should have done was called Security who would have the right to detain her in the parking lot until the Police came. Then she could explain her way out of the "jam". Would have taken a lot longer then it ended up taking her.
I agree. I hate those stores. I hate getting in line behind someone with a pallet of stuff. I just avoid the places.
She should have waited in line like a civilized person.
But unless she was suspected of a crime, neither a door jockey or a store dick can hold her. Since she wasn’t suspected of shoplifting, they couldn’t touch her (not waiting in line isn’t a crime AFTER merchandise is paid for).
In many places what the door jockey did would get her arrested for battery.
Nope, they wouldn't. Security has no authority to detain without reasonable suspicion of theft, etc. Simply walking out is not evidence of shoplifting.
If waiting in line for receipt check is really in the membership agreement that she signed, then she should have done it. Otherwise, it's just store policy, which apples to employees, not customers. In either case, the other woman had no business laying a hand on her.
