Employment—with Perks

by Gary Hoffman

 

“You work for whom and do what?”

“It’s called Rent-a-Thief.  Stores hire people from them to pretend shoplift.  They fake catching me and make a big deal about it.  It’s supposed to scare would-be shoplifters.”

“Does it work?”

“I guess.”

“Good pay?”

"OK.”

“Benefits?”

“Great!  They never check to see if I’ve actually shoplifted anything.”
