Is there any way to stop kleptomaniacs stealing from your retail store?

It's getting kinda annoying when I have to keep replacing the same objects over and over. Quite often I don't even realise something's gone, or I don't know what was taken because this is a large buil...

"I've never noticed kleptos stealing from my store. Didn't even realize it was a thing."

Yeah, I opened a retail store and was maybe 40 retail sales into the venture when I noticed, "Hey... that counter wasn't empty before!"

I began to realize that not all who enter my retail store are customers. Some are loiterers, others are influencers and some are "papariatzi" (if you own Get Famous), but It's hard to tell who the klepto is unless you are aware of the personality traits of the people who are lingering in your store.

So it might be to your advantage to employ the aspiration trait, "observation" to be able to identify the people in your store with the "klepto" trait. But even so, it's impossile to stop the perpetraitor or recover the stolen items.

It would be deeply satisfying if a store owner was able to: 1) identify who's stealing from the store and 2) shake 'em by the ankles until everything they've stolen (from your store) falls out of their inventory.
