Work assignment abroad makes waves back home Dear Abby: I took an assignment with my company that posted me to Hong Kong for two years. Legally, eating or using the contents of an unpaid item in the aisle is considered shoplifting. While the intent may not be to “steal,” retailers require that items in their stores be paid for before they can be used or eaten. An employee of mine working in a major grocery chain took a bottle of eye drops and used them while he was in the aisle. Several of them mentioned that it is impossible to correctly charge for food that is sold by weight if someone has eaten some. Others said that customers sometimes get to the register and realize they have left their wallet at home, or their credit card is rejected. A reader also suggested that if someone wants to pay for food after consuming it, that’s what restaurants are for.
