The most awesome job in the world. An LPO typically spends two shifts of four hours a day walking around a high-end retail store, like Target, to spot shoplifters in the act and recover stolen merchandise.
Fuck man, I got arrested for shoplifting because of Target's new Loss Prevention Officer.

A Professional, Human Resources, or Politically Correct version of a term used to refer to a security guard or rent-a-cop for a retail or department store.
"I just got hired to be Target's new Loss Prevention Officer!"
"You know that's just a security guard position right?"
"Fuck! I thought it was a real job."
