Funny, I'm actually more inclined to do it now.
Just do it at places like Home Depot or Lowe's. Don't do it at your neighborhood garden center.
Why? It's not like you're costing the shop money by taking trash off the floor. If anything you're more likely to spend money at the shop you do it at for supplies and such.
I'd never considered this. Thanks for the idea, sign!
Ex-retail worker here that spent a lot of time in aisles, counting inventory, etc.
Steal whatever you want; I don't care. Not my job to look after that shit and I wasn't paid enough for it anyway.
Former retail worker here.
I was never paid enough to care about shit other than directly keeping my job. So, you know, look busy when the boss was around.
I had to stop people from stealing big shit, like TVs and such.
A hungry looking kid grabbing some food to eat in an aisle and leave the trash? Just throw the trash away please, I'm not your fucking maid.
Former bigbox manager here. The garden section is throwaway, no one gives a shit about plants. Come to me when garden tools and lawnmowers are missing.
Bad inventory practices are the leading causes of shrink. Any actual theft is securities problem.
More like volunteer janitoring with benefits.
half of my succulents at home are from leaves that have fallen off in stores. sue me.
"Ворованное лучше растёт."
… picking up…

We really do live in a dystopia.
So many examples every day.
I personally like nurseries to be able to stay in business. Most of them are just small local businesses.
Anarchy, because apparently words don't have meaning anymore
Dystopia is when small sign.
