These Aren't the Droids You're Looking For

Since the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office formed a task force to concentrate on beer thefts, several arrests have been made, thanks in part to video surveillance cameras that feature facial recognition technology.

I find it funny that the report indicates the location the beer was stolen from:

4705 S 129th East Ave.

There's not a QT location at that address.  Unless you're talking about the QT corporate HQ address....

I've seen many perps running from the QT at 15th and Denver, usually to a waiting car that is parked a block away

Their latest store design isn’t doing them any favors in terms of curbing shoplifting.

I can't stand the new store design. It promotes bumping into other customers and trying to figure out who's next in line at the counter. It's a total cluster smoot!

The upside to it however is the parking is much improved.  But the only Gen III store I go to is the one down the street from my work (11th/Sheridan).  I usually go to Pine/Mingo or 11th/Hwy169 otherwise.

Agreed. And you can now get a fleet full of vehicles fueled at the same time.. It just seems so jam packed inside now compared to the old design.

Oh and back to the topic at hand. I hope they are using the program that makes me look like George Clooney.

Yes, that's where you go when the receipt won't print at the pump.

It's a little piece of paper with numbers on it, but that's not important right now.

Technically, the receipt is not printed because it's an inkless process. A tiny heating element causes a chemical reaction in the paper.

Carry on.
