Cellphone footage from the store shows two men wearing hoodies and face masks rush into the store and grab armloads of merchandise from areas closest to the entrance of the store and then rush out. McDonald said the employees "knowingly broke the policy" and engaged with the thieves, including following them out of the store. "In this particular case, we have a zero-tolerance policy that we train our educators on around engaging during a theft. Why? Because we put the safety of our team and of our guests front and center," McDonald said. Do you agree with Lululemon's decision to fire the employees who tried to intervene during the theft at their store?

Nordstrom , Whole Foods and some other big chains said they were abandoning San Francisco because of changing economic conditions or employee safety.
