tha was considered to be one of the Detroit area inner city stores. We had "receipt checkers" for as long as I can remember.

It was NOT uncommon for us to have an inventory that was off by almost a million dollars. That's right. ONE store. Most of it was theft by customers and associates. Before Home Depot changed their return policy, I had personally seen some customers take a window A/C and go straight to the returns register and attempt to return it. Their excuse was that they had brought the A/C thru either the lumber door down on the other end of the store or thru the garden gate.

I even helped a guy load the heaviest A/C on a cart. After watching him leave the dept, I saw he went straight to returns. I walked up there and just stood there while he waited in line. He finally noticed me and got real nervous. After about a minute he made some excuse to go to his car. I watched him go out to his car and just drive off.

The bad thing now is with the advent of newer and more advanced printers, people are printing their own labels of UPC and putting them on items. They get $200 ceiling fans for only $20. Now that PISSES me off!!
