It’s no secret that Walmart has some talented cake decorators working in the bakery section of its stores.

The store has even been accused of keeping tabs on repeat offenders. So it’s no surprise that when a man went to Walmart to check on the status of his job application, he says he was shown a video of himself stealing.
