When I moved to the USA I always thought it was interesting in how many ways you can just walk out a store without paying.
I'm from Belgium, and at least where I grew up at, the stores are much more corralled. One way in, one way out.
But this forensics is also why I don't use self-checkout. Not that I steal stuff, but I don't want to end up in a situation where I forgot to scan something and get in trouble.
I've had it happen to me that something was missed at Costco, you just walk back and pay.
Do Belgian fire codes not mandate multiple exits? One problem I have sometimes seen here is people running out of a fire exit, even if they set off an alarm in the process. And you can’t block or lock those exits.
