Good. If they want security, hire security. No store clerk should be expected to intervene. Most they should be responsible for is keeping them self safe and and calling a manager/police once its safe for them to do.

I worked multiple customer facing roles when I was younger. This is the procedure for all of them, in fact it is usually a firable offense to try to stop someone with a weapon or threatened you. It is easy to defend stolen product to an insurance company. If you try to stop someone robbing a store and are injured or killed do to a policy the store had or a manager told you, the insurance isn't going to pay anything. Someone stealing "$30,000" worth of merchandise (which insurance pays you back for) and then being on cameras and not being able to use a lot of it without getting caught is much more preferable than having to pay hundreds of thousands in medical bills or millions in gross negligence if someone dies.

Security ain't doin shit. "Observe and Report" isnt just a catchy saying, it is literally all corp Security is supposed to do.

Also, jailbreaking stolen tech to sale is more trouble than it's worth. Doubt the smash and dash thefts aren't the ones calling the shots but most modern tech is little better than strapping a GPS to yourself.
