Target is such a hostile consumer experience that I don't shop there even when it's much closer than its shitty alternatives. Employees hovering over me with a mandatory smile would only further reinforce how uncomfortable their surveillance system feels. I haven't even stolen anything from there because there's nothing worth stealing, but fuck if I'm going to buy towels while the Treat Gestapo is doing penis inspections to make sure I'm not a criminal.

Couldn't agree more. I don't shop at Target unless I have to but if they're forcing employees to bother customers like this I'm never going inside one again
