Employee deprives gentleman from liberating merchandise from department store

A customer who chose the no-payment option for a store item was pursued out the door by a relentless employee who apparently holds the quaint notion that transactions involving the exchange of goods should be beneficial to both parties. The ideologically rigid employee got his way this time, but I'm sure the gentleman with the big pickup will be back again before Christmas.

UPDATE: It looks like the employee was fired for not letting the  thief get away with it. (Thanks WCityMike in comments)

A terrible attempt at stealing from r/funny
