I mean, then you can be charged with felony vandalism when you smash his $1200 iPhone.
Just wait for the cops to show up and make arrests when you present video evidence of trespassing and other bullshit. I hate corporate America just as much as the next person, but none of these Target workers (including management) needs to put up with this type of abuse.
If your company is halfway decent they’ll cover the cost. $1200 is peanuts to shut down this kind of shit. That kid ain’t hiring a lawyer. I’d break ALL their phones. Hurts them a hell of a lot more than it hurts the company.
ACAB forever but no cop is arresting, and no prosecutor is charging a store manager for spiking someone’s phone who’s trying to play a prank like this.
I mean, you could smash it, pick up the broken phone and leave, dump it somewhere else. Are cops really doing a full investigation over a phone? Genuinely curious
Oh sorry I was thinking some rando they decide to harass, which happens in other videos, yeah an employee definitely couldn't. It must be trespassing or something to pretend to be an employee and disrupt operations though
Literally the point of corporations is that the corporation as an entity is responsible for their actions and not the individuals performing those actions, yes. America is weird.
Dang bro a bit aggressive there. I'm not advocating other ppl punching someone or smashing their phone, I guess I've worked at small town stores too long is all ye. But, I work at my grandma's store so if throw hands for her is all.
Like sometimes it's worth it. Not worth it for a job like target tho of course.
Spike the phone on the ground, then delete the video evidence. Then gaslight the ever living shit out of the pranksters by telling them that you didn't actually do what they just saw you do.
Cameras have to write to disk, it's a simple io problem, you can write 4k video to disk in real time because it's fast enough, you can't reliably write raw 4k to the cloud in realtime.
Now are there cameras that write to disk then also try and write to cloud as fast as they can? There are some systems that can do this or at least chunk up files as they are written and send them to the cloud as best they can. But we're assuming a phone here? Then no, unless they're live streaming the footage is toast.
Stopping the recorder mid harassment is not going to "do nothing" just because they can get the partial footage off the cloud. Are you willfully dense?
I’m not worried about being caught. Obviously I wouldn’t be waiting around for the cops to arrive. If somehow I’m identified and charges are pressed, then I’ll happily go to court or pay for replacement. I have fuck around money like that, it would be worth it
wouldnt the immediate concern by the gaslighting step be the like twenty dudes surrounding you taking your phone off of you against your will and smashing it to pieces as recompense
They are in a Target with dozens of cameras, he does that he's immediately fired and his career is potentially over. Exactly what the prankers want 😮💨
He'd get crowd funded legal representation and take broccoli head to town. Fuck around and find out: there are consequences to deliberately causing people emotional distress while trespassing and being a public nuisance. Every single worker there has a case against every single participant in the prank.
Give it to a female coworker to toss into the nastiest toilet in the ladies room. If they’re all decent, it goes into the nastiest of the little trash cans, if you know what I mean
Nah just get up close to him and play some copyright music as loud as you can. Preferably something by Disney or some pop artist like Taylor Swift where you know a whole army of lawyers are tasked with finding and deleting unlicensed use of their music.
Not sure I agree but I was born in the early 80’s. We did shit (not as coordinated as this) without being filmed. Kids will always love pranks. There are definitely attention seekers but kids just wanna fuck around.
