How you keep someone banned from shop?

Dublindude69

I work at a store and he constantly have problems with a certin Traviller family constantly coming in and stealing. They can't deny it because we clearly have them on camera stealing things.
The problem is they come in about twice a week. When we tell them to leave because they are banned they just stare at you. I'm fed up with them, they buy like €5 worth of stuff and end up stealing about €50. We've gotten the law involved, one of them was even arrested before because they stole money but they are still coming in.
Why won't they leave, we asked the guardi to explain to them all they are perma banned after the money thing but they just don't take a hint.
I'm fed up explaining why they are banned, I just get "I'm not banned" all the time and I have to explain they are, always.
I wish they would at least steal soap and some deodrant. Damn Connors.

Why the need to specifically point out that they're travellers?

Ruu_Old

Shoot them when they are walking away..oh wait you can't do that in Ireland.

ScumLord

Rabies

Get footage of them returning and stealing again then get them trespassed.

Yeah I like that idea, reverse psychology. Tell them if they steal again it's coming out of their wages lol.

tanyaog2007

the guards will do fU*CK all they are afraid of them, makes me sick they can do what they like and nothn is done about it , if it was just a other nomal family doing that im sure it would be a diffrent story :mad:

Because they are

If it was a group of scumbag little kids of the depths of Tallaght, they'd be called that.

Calling someone a traveller that is a traveller, isn't a problem.
Degrading travellers is a problem.

Stealing is stealing. The posters has identified who it was

Just tell them there rights of trade has been with drawn from the store and there's no explaining. You don't have to serve them let them in if ye don't want them there. END of its a shop not a lawyers firm/garda station/charity shop.

Also at this stage, ye don't have to be nice so. Just be a prick too.

Silly me, thinking maybe they could be described as "people". Maybe I just picked up the insinuation that the problem here was Oh, gosh, the travellers are at it again...I don't feel he specifically needed to point out that people of a certain cultural background came into his shop to steal. He would have gotten comments just as constructive had he said "people". They are people, right? I'm not trying to cause an argument, this is just something I take issue with.

Some scumbags fear the law. They can be fined, as the Gardai know where they live. Travellers cannot be fined as easily, as they can just move address over night. They know this, and thus the bad ones can ignore most of these laws the rest of us obey.

If they were a bunch of little skangers, i'd have said so. If they were a load of little 8 year old brats, i'd have said so.

I don't think the OP has insinuated that all travelers are shop-lifters, just happens the shop lifters he speaks of are travelers

You're making a fool out of yourself 'explaining' to them over and over. They know well, they also know you won't do anything about it.

Just hire a security guard ffs.

Can't you get a restraining order or something?

Shup with your PC ****e, of course it's relevant that they're travellers. You wouldn't get a settled family doing that again and again and getting away with it. And there's a limit to how far you can push a traveller without making yourself an enemy of the whole family.

You know what, your totally right, in fact he probably deserves everything he gets for pointing out who they are. That'll teach him to try and protect his living. :rolleyes:

Ah knock off the PC stuff, this is AH, and if they were travellers and he identified them as such I really am not seeing the problem.

You're just out looking for a fight. Let it alone. There's more in life to worry about.
