Macy’s Voyeurs

Written By: William F. B. O'Reilly - Jul• 22•11

Macy’s installs changing room doors upside down so that employees can peer into dressing rooms and watch customers change, according to a report in the news today.  The upside down doors are part of an anti-theft measure instituted by Macy’s security.  It reportedly has been going on for years. 

Customers changing are in full view of anyone peering down through the blinds.  Those changing, though, cannot see that they are being watched. 

Is Macy’s out of its mind?

    In DC–I think at a Macy’s, though it might have been Dillard’s–a bunch of money dropped out of my jeans as I was getting undressed. When I got back from showing a friend the outfit I was trying on, a store employee (security) was in my fitting room, with her hand in my jean’s pocket. “Oh,” she said, “I was just tidying up.” Uh huh. They had cameras filming people in dressing rooms.

  2. I’m staggered by this. How could this have gotten through?
