I don't get particularly angry at shoplifters, but as someone who's hours were cut multiple times due to high levels of shrink in the past, it absolutely effects the employees
No matter what the real reason is, no matter what company you work for, they're always going to blame cuts on customers or workers. Never has anyone said "we're laying off your whole department because the CEO needs their $xx million per year. Because the shareholders said so."
The same boss who got fired for trying to protect us from those cuts eh?
Bosses not boss. Blaming lower command is the batarang in a corporation's utility belt.
