  WAL-MART IN CHULA VISTA

"Supermarket security guards (is it correct name?) - hmm... are cameras enough?
or they are secret = no marked uniforms? or... there are no thefts there? hmm...
as I watched a lot of Hollywood movies they must be, am I wrong?"

FROM my friend CHRIS (balfor) from Atlanta, Georgia, USA:
Yes, we call them security guards. There are also cameras all over the place in most retail stores and stores like Walmart also have people who are dressed like regular people (no uniforms) and they walk around like they are a customer, but they are really atching other people to make sure they aren't stealling anything. And they do this because there is most certainly a lot of theft from a store like Wal-Mart.

"people walking around and giving you a leaflet. How do you call that paper
spam?"
We call them solicitors.

THANK you Chris :-).
