:mad: Damn, damn, damn, damn! :mad: I posted to this but my computer locked up and it didn’t get thru! Here’s the gist of my previous attempt:
ThinkSnow sayeth:**
You do know, of course, that 9 out of 10 of those reflective bubbles or cieling mirrors have noting behind them. The trick is…which one do have the cameras?**
My dad was an air conditioning contractor who built several Wal-Marts, and so has seen “behind the scenes”. How it works:
All the ones in electronics, sporting goods, and over the cash registers at the front are real, as are the ones in the gun and cash rooms (in the back). The rest of the bubbles have 1 or 2 cameras total, which are moved to a different bubble every month or two.
Now wasn’t that informative? Too bad it didn’t mak it the first time (right after ThinkSnow’s post that I quoted)
I was looking at Wal-Mart online the other day & a big message flashed on the screen "“Security cameras track and record ISP port #4, Security cameras track and record port #4.”
Why shop Walmart at all?
Kmart has similar prices, but better quality.
Don’t buy shoes at Walmart!!! I have never owned a pair of Walmart shoes that didn’t make my feet bleed.
Yes, I bought the right size.
Pretty simple, really…around the edges of the black bubbles are holes.
If these holes have metal studs in them, then there is a place for a camera behind it.
Otherwise, there’s usually nothing under it but a ceiling tile.

During the retail phase of my life I worked at two Wal-Marts and found the security cameras to be a joke. The monitors were located in the manager’s office, with four VCR’s to record different parts of the store. In the year that I worked there I never saw a tape in any of the VCR’s. It was almost like the camera’s were there for show. We didn’t even have a dedicated Loss Prevention associate. It was the job of every associate, whether you were a stocker, cashier or cart person to look for shoplifters.
Target was a different story. 2 Loss Prevention associates per shift (A.M and P.M) along with cameras (hooked up to VCR’s with tapes in them) monitoring high risk areas (electronics, jewelry). Each register had a dedicated camera on it. These cameras were hooked up in a way that allowed a read out of the register tape to appear on the monitor. That way the loss prevention people could see if you were giving discounts to friends, family, etc. Target is pretty serious about theft.
I believe the word you’re looking for here is ‘hypocrite’.
not to mock, but wouldn’t a hippocrip be a hippopotamus in a wheelchair?
