QUESTION:
I’m a minor and I used to borrow from target and I want a job from there since I have connections to get a job but I don’t know if I should take it since I am worried I will get confronted and charged if they have footage every though I haven’t gotten caught.
ANSWER:
If you borrowed less than $950 and it has been more than a year since the borrowing, the statute of limitations has likely run out on a criminal charge for shoplifting. Ultimately, it’s a tough call. You have to balance your need for a job with the potential for embarrassment or prosecution, however unlikely it may be that the interviewer matches your appearance to old surveillance video.
