So sister, you know how Walgreens lock up everything behind the
00:02
glass? Yeah, I hate that.
00:05
Like I gotta let everyone know that like I smell like sobaco
00:09
and I gotta ring the bell for deodorant.
00:12
Exactly, and I'm sure everyone feels the same way you do
00:16
Walgreens CEO Tim Wentworth says that the anti shoplifting strategy has backfired
00:21
He said, and I quote,
00:23
When you lock things up,
00:24
you don't sell as many of them.
00:27
I mean, that's when you lose the customer.
00:29
The first few seconds are crucial.
00:31
Like nobody wants to wait 45 minutes because they do take long
00:35
and they have a whole public announcement to just get some
00:39
basic needs out of a cage.
00:40
I'm telling you exactly what is it?
00:43
Assistance needed a feminine care.
00:45
It's like that's the worst.
00:48
I'm just trying to get some like like I don't want people
00:50
knowing that I lose that time of the month,
00:52
you know what I mean?
00:54
And honestly, like that strategy I think was a hot mess
00:57
right? Like all it did was wanna make us order
00:59
more stuff online and just go shopping elsewhere.
01:01
Yeah, do it on Amazon you have it the next day
01:04
and that's it you know and it's always the same story
01:06
at every spot, right?
01:07
Like what you said you press the button and you're waiting.
01:10
But then it sucks because only one person running the whole store
01:13
They're always so understaffed.
01:15
It's they're doing the register.
01:16
They're doing stocking. Oh,
01:18
and now Jenny needs pads,
01:19
so gotta run over there and help they replaced people with computers
01:23
So check out at least mine like they,
01:26
they point out to the.
01:27
Computers so you can check out,
01:29
yeah, like if it's locked up though I don't,
01:31
I don't need it that bad.
01:32
You know what, someone in the thread was saying like,
01:34
oh what if they have like memberships like a kind of like
01:36
a TSA precheck like yo,
01:37
if you have a membership you've been vetted and you can go
01:40
in without these lockers and the glass.
01:42
So I mean yeah that would be kind of cool,
01:43
right? No, I'm like,
01:46
this is, this is about something more.
01:49
This is about freedom.
01:50
You gotta free the pads.
01:52
You gotta free the deodorant.
01:54
You gotta free the vapo the Q-tips.
01:56
You gotta condoms, the condoms free them free them,
02:00
because in this economy,
02:03
everyone wants to just do it.
