Does the supermarkets even care or know about stealing?
I've been living in CPH for maybe a year and recently I was working as a trainee at a kiosk. I didn’t join there because too many fishy deals were happening. One of the fishy things amongst the others, were dealing with thieves.(!) Everyday few people used to visit the owner with bags filled with stolen goods. And they always used to say that, "I'm gonna get this from Netto, those from Reema.." etc. And to me, this was like a whole brand new experience. I mean, yes I get it, sometimes maybe some people take one or few small things without paying. But how come people just steal two or three large bags of big Maribou chocolates without even getting caught! When I was training there, I saw those thieves bringing big bottles of alcohol, cigarette cartons, chocolates, biscuits and so many things. One of the dudes identified me as a new staff there and he was flexing to me by saying he has been doing this for more than ten years and not once he got caught. I mean, What in the world bro!! And as per them, they do it for so many other kiosks around Copenhagen.
So, yeah, later I chose not to continue with them anymore cause it felt too risky for me to work at a place like that. But, I was just feeling truly curious afterwards. I mean how come the supermarkets are okay with these type of mass stealing man? I mean, they should atleast know that they're getting robbed all the time, right? Also, the way I noticed those thieves, it looked like a regular day work to them. So how come they're not in jail yet? Because judging by their confidence, it seemed like these type of activities are not jailworthy in Denmark. I'm just a bit too surprised I guess cause up until now, I hardly or probably never imagined Denmark as a country where mass stealing is a thing since most of the people I met from here or places I have been, were pretty civil and decent. So it struck me pretty hard I guess. By the way, English is not my language, so I apologize beforehand if my texts are difficult to read.
