My name is Victor V. Cunningham, and I live in the Jackson, MS metro area. I'm a former Merchandising Manager with this company working at the Dogwood Promenade Store from October of 2008 until January 2010. According to all accounts I left the company in good standing. I frequently shop Store #6, when I say frequently I mean at least once a week. I've always liked the selection and convenience of the store as I'm getting off work. Keep in mind I live in Madison and could easily stop in at that store but I choose to come to the I-55 store. Every since the new store manager Lucy has taken over I'm being targeted and followed each time I enter the store. At first it was the page for security and then security from the outside would come in and walk the perimeter of where I just happen to shopping......he later told me that's why he was coming in. I even overheard her at one time tell one of the workers to watch me, I don't know his name but I could tell the urgency in his demeanor each time I would enter even to the point of a look of sarcasm on his face when I would walk in the door, and his willingness to run and ring me up every time I checked out. On one occasion I identified myself as a former manager to Lucy as she stood watching the young man ring me up. After that security quit coming from the outside, but the young man continued to hawk eye me. On last evening 5/15/2015, I entered the store went to the $5.00 room spoke to the workers back there, continued to the Linens Dept., picked out sheets, pillows, and a quilt; came to the front and got a buggy. I stopped and held a conversation with the manager Frankie, proceeded to shop around, picked up a shirt, went to the Shoe Dept. tried on a couple pairs, mind you leaving my buggy several feet away. As I left the Shoe Dept. out comes this white security person......as walked past ties stopping to look at your 1.98 socks he stops within feet of me pretending to use his phone.....I ventured on looking with him in toe. I've been in retail 21 years and know the codes and the plain clothes store detectives. I turned went and got underwear, came back and ran into Frankie, where I cursed and told her I was tired of being followed each time I entered that store by this time he's standing over in jewelry still watching me. I proceeded to check out he walked outside retrieved a buggy came back in and pretended to arrange them. He questioned me about what I said to Frankie as far as my cursing... and that he was protecting his people. I told him I didn't appreciate being followed every time I'm in the store. I told me to while standing off at register 3 to lower my voice and get out if the store I told him I would after I paid for my purchase, which I did $127.37 to be exact. I asked for corporates number which I received and left a message on last evening and will follow up on Monday with another message voice-to-voice with someone there. I left and then I decided I will never shop SteinMart again, I made the block and brought back everything I had just purchased. I was on Facebook last night telling of the account to friends and relatives, asking them to no longer shop there....by the way my grandmother had 14 children 9 of them girls which were avid SteinMart shoppers. This morning I disturbed my lawyer and I will be in his office on Monday morning, because I feel this has been a case of racial profiling and just because I come in every week, I've helped with sales big or small. I've never but on one occasion returned an item and that was because it was cut in the pattern unbeknownst to me or the sales person who rang the night before. At work the next day one of my sales associates noticed it because of the white tee I was wearing underneath. I'm still livid about the incident and I wont stop until I receive justice. My integrity means a whole lot to me. As said earlier I'm in management and the protection of your assets is justified but SteinMart Store #6 has gotten ridiculous in its protection antics. I don't any coupons....and speaking of those I haven't used my Birthday Coupon ever that should tell you something about my wanting your product price or discount really doesn't matter. And another thing I park in the Handicap Parking Space right in front of the store so if I was trying to steal you would certainly have my tag number from the outside cameras and from someone running out and writing down. That really would be stupid on my part.....but we're going to see who the stupid ones are because I'm certainly seeking legal actions with this MATTER! I don't want to contacted by email and this morning I Unsubscribed to anything from SteinMart
