argonautweakend 08/12/21 1:15:41 PM #1:	This customer comes in, super loopy, probably heroin or something like it. couldn't form coherent sentences, asking all kinds of weird questions.... She was in the store for five minutes, my coworker whispers to me she thinks she has something in her bag. Customer apporoaches the front, and is asking questions when I can see the neck and cap of a vodka bottle sticking out of her purse ever slightly. This is the same neck and cap style a lot of companies use, like Titos(just a black cap and not copper color). She doesn't buy anything, but on her way out I say "Miss, do you have something in your bag" and she proceeds to pull out this item, which we do not sell: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1734/7127/products/Faber_Square_1024x1024.jpg?v=1586294208 Easily confused for this item, which we DO sell https://tinyurl.com/ye2tjuez So I simply said "Miss, I am sorry. You may leave" The Faber company did switch to making hand sanitizer during the pandemic and I have seen these bottles before. That could have been the ultimate cover for actual theft, and if so, fuck, that's pretty inventive so while I don't like criminals or theft...gotta give props where it is due. But I did see on the camera her fiddling for a minute with our cart wipes, so maybe she is just really into being sanitized. <cite>argonautweakend posted [p:957019221] in I thought ...
