Why Is Shoplifting Important
Crimes are an injustice to society, it’s an offense that an individual may be prosecuted by, and may be punished by law. Shoplifting isn’t a game, which you can without difficulty get away with. Its your own choice, and there is consequence for every action you take. The experience of getting caught while shoplifting can be horrifying, a lack of trust by an individual, a reputation in society you hold, or your mind set may change diametrically, are all factors you may have to deal with subsequently in life. Trust is a reliability an individual can place in a person, in having confidence they will make the right choice. When trust is broken there is a lack of communication you will have with that individual in your life yet, it is impossibly

    Sherman's Anti-Trust Act Of 1890

    I first learn about “trusts” working in my father’s grocery store. Some customers would come into the store and ask if they could get X or Y to trust. My father would get out this thick book and write the name of the customer and the list of products. He would hand over the product without collecting the money; back then, I was looking for the customer to hand over the money, but he/she would quietly exit the store. This was not good for business, because when he goes to the market place to purchase his goods, he always have to pay for his products. A concept I am still trying to grasp because at age 89, he continue to do the same thing.…

    Brian Doyle's Essay 'Joyas Voladoras'

    Have you ever been hurt by someone or have someone break your trust? Would you ever trust that person again?Or would you just never trust again? Brian Doyle’s essay made me think of these questions when he started talking about trust and giving our trust to people but always getting your heart broken in the end. In the essay “Joyas Voladoras” by Brian Doyle, it illustrates that you can try to protect your heart and trust by locking it up and keeping it from the outside world but it will always be broken by someone or something. Brian Doyle never says that he is using this theme because it is left to the reader…

    Examples Of Trust In The Odyssey

    Trust is an important thing, but it must also be understood that trust being broken is not always one’s fault. There are occasions where life takes unexpected turns that change everything. Friar Lawrence played a rather large role in the love of Romeo and Juliet. The thing that some call ‘fate’ left Romeo dead because information had not reached him. Friar was left to say, “A greater power than we can contradict Hath thwarted our intents” (Shakespeare Scene V Act 3). So there are times when promises and friendships can be broken because of events that are neither persons fault, so sometimes one must resort to mercy and understanding for broken trust. Romeo and Juliet shows this as well as it could possibly be…

    Marine

    Trust- Trust is the make or break between a relationship with someone and something. If you trust someone you have confidence that the person will do anything you tell him to do or what he says he will do. Trust doesn’t just happen; you must build trust with anything or anyone you encounter. How you build trust is never fail at something someone tells you to do. You can also lose trust with something or someone. For example, if lcpl Smith’s Cpl told him he wanted Lcpl Smith to PT after work because Lcpl Smith is having a hard time while on platoon runs and after 2 weeks Lcpl Smith still hasn’t gotten any better the Cpl knows that Lcpl Smith failed him then lost trust with his Marine. Another example would be when a kid is learning to ride a bike and keeps falling off the bike the kid will lose trust in himself that he can learn to ride his bike.…

    Ir Spectrum Lab Report

    These RF values were valuable information, however they did not determine which solution an IR spectrum would be obtained for. This was determined by the strongest, or more visible spot on the plate. An error for this lab could have occurred at this point because the wrong spot was chosen. If the RF values were used to determined which spot to choose, results may yield a smaller presence of pure naphthyl ether and a larger presence of dichloromethane in the IR spectrum. The spot that is most visible on the TLC plate is the solution that needs to be chosen.…

    Trust is a very valuable thing is one’s life. Without trust, it is next to impossible to go through life. Graham Green happens to agree with this as she had once said, “… it is impossible o go through life without trust…” One can interpret this quote as trust being an essential aspect to life and in order to go through it, there must be someone or something a person can put his or her faith in. Two works of literature that reflect this quote are The Fault in Our Stars by John Greene and A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry.…

    Shoplifting and Its Effect on Society

    Shoplifting affects not only me but my family as well. I feel embarrassed and worthless yet if I felt like that. “Why did I do it in the first place?” Because shoplifting is tempting, the shoplifter thinks they’re getting the product for free. But the truth is that someone has to pay for our mistake, thus price rises and the community has to pay. And some stores could even go bankrupt because of shoplifting. It is unfair to people who do not shoplift to pay for the mistakes that shoplifters make. People in the community who are not as wealthy as others have a harder time paying for their food and needs, and when they feel they can’t afford spending too much money at a certain retail store they will have to go to another destination to shop, causing a great inconvience to them and also the retail store will be losing money and might even close down in the future. We also suffer on a personal level, when an employee who realizes an item has been stolen from their store. They often feel violated, and when they feel violated it causes them to lose trust in others. So store employee follow potential merchants, watching their every move, making potential merchants uneasy and guilty when they are innocent. As there is no ‘look’ of a shoplifter, there is no way to identify whether a person is going to shoplift or not. And thus trust is lost between the merchant and the retailer. Resulting in an uncomfortable environment to shop in.…

    Shoplifting: Theft and People

    Today shoplifting is one of the most common forms of theft in the United States. Shoplifting is now the number one cause for smaller stores to fail in today's market. The small stores are also the ones the usually carry the smaller items which are the easiest to receive the "five fingered discount" on.

    What Makes Mrs Mallard A Protagonist

    Kate Chopin’s characterization of Mrs. Mallard makes her a Protagonist (the main character that has to overcome the antagonist, in this case would be Mr. Mallard). “Knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble, great care was taken to break to her as gently as possible the news of her husband's death.” When she heard about the news she went up to her room crawled up into a ball and cried. When she finally got out of the ball she looked out the window and it was a sunny day, plenty of big puffy white clouds. Usually in stories when there is bad news given it is a gloomy day dark clouds. So personally I believe that this gave her a sign that everything would be better. I thinker she thought that life would be better that's…

    Trust

    Trust is the very thing that everybody in this world desires, or at least should desire from one another. Who wants to have a friendship or relationship without trust? Nobody does. Without trust, there is no friendship, and without friendship, there is no love. I believe that trust is an even greater compliment than to be loved! I believe George Macdonald said it best when he stated "To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved." When I read this quote for the first time, I thought to myself, "Wow that is so true. How can you be loved if you are not trusted first?"…
