Having worked in retail before we were trained in dealing with shop lifters or suspected shop lifters. Everyone always got a receipt.
As someone who gets profiled pretty much everywhere I go I know the feeling. People following me around double and triple checking to see if I'm ok, it gets old real fast, but I understand their looking out for their business.
I stop in a lot of tackle shops in my travels, some good experiences, some bad. I only go back to the ones that had treated me well.
It's too bad it was handled the way it was, seems like if he had just asked the other employee if you checked out none of this would have happened.
The other thing I hate is walking into a tackle shop were the guys who work there or are hanging out are bad mouthing another customer that just left. But that's another story.
Too bad it went down the way it did, the damage is done, and no more sales from you an your family.
