What Would You Do?

[TWR]

2 Asian youths enter a local Boots, picked up a can of deodorant the shop assistant asked one of them ( The clever one) to put the can down, he did not and began to spray onto his clothes! what would you do?

[B00]

If I was a fellow customer? Nowt.

If I was the shop assistant? See above!

[anneasquith]

is ' asian' relevant to this scenario ?

[TWR]

I was at Acci on Frid Boo

[B00]

Ye Gods were you? Commiserations!

Hope that a Security Officer may be summoned by staff.

[Mamyalynne]

Not Acci !!!

[TWR]

Yes, that's the persons I refer to, thats why I sad it ( Don't start just answer If you can)

[TWR]

Yes Acci Boo lol

[daffy654]

Isn't that technically theft?
I would call security and let them deal with it.

[TWR]

There are no Security person's in the shop.

How could you tell which one was the clever one just by looking at them (or did one have a t-shirt on saying 'I'm with stupid')?

[TWR]

Because I was standing by them, Do you want me to go back to try and find the evidence on the CCTV

[B00]

To fully answer the question TWR, in all seriousness I wouldn't do a thing. I might say something, but I wouldn't risk being assaulted which could so easily happen when you confront anyone.

Not sure why you feel the need to point out that they were Asian...

Anyway, why did the assistant ask them to put it down in the first place? Where they causing a nuisance before they started spraying? I would ask them to leave and if they didn't call security/police.

[daffy654]

I'm not sure why the assistant would ask the man to put the can down, he may have been wanting to buy it.

[anneasquith]

your good TWR. you can tell someone is clever just by standing next to them, again is Asian relevant to this scenario ?

[TWR]

From what the assistant told me after, they are known for causing problems, why the hell did I post this.

[sherrardk]

They maybe didn't think you looked too clever yourself.

[sherrardk]

Because you like a nice moan about stuff?
