revvo Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Alright, time to be honest guys, this is for all the people working out there doing something. Do you steal _anything_ from work whether it's coffee or ipods or whatever. We aren't all model employees now are we :shifty: I get krispy kreme doughnuts even though I'm not suppose to and they don't care. No I'm not fat, I'm just hungry once in a while :rolleyes: We all do it there.

Brodel Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Yea, it wasn't like I stole from off the shelf though. It was a clothes store and all the returns or slightly faulty goods got stuck in bags in the basement and were all cut up into shreds every 6 months, so before I left I helped myself to a fair load of things. I wouldn't do it if it were just a normal situation though.

ichi Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 The only things worth stealing where I work are Ultraspark workstations and bank account information from several companies and some millions of individuals... so the answer is no :ninja: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/363636-do-you-steal-from-work/#findComment-586430838 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daviesbad04 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 When I worked at UPS, I did. Alot of times packages coming through my sort would be ripped up, and likewise with packages inside of them. About 70% of the packages that came by me were from Tigerdirect, so I came across alot of goodies. I didnt do it because I love to steal, because I dont. I did it because at UPS when a package is opened they tend to throw it to a side and itll sit there for WEEKS on end. And eventually, someone else takes whats inside of it. So hey, I jump to the occassion and get me some goodies. Nobody ever seemed to care anyway, so I did get 2-3 good things. And yes, I know it was wrong, but I already explained why I did it.

Dale Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 i work at a grocery store part time.. every once and a while we get damanges/expired items.. I don't necessarly call it stealing, but if its damaged and its edible without a microwave/stove I eat/drink it on the spot sometimes and throw it in Damages and if its expired i ask my supervisor to take it home and he innitials it. its not really stealing, if it was the store steals as well.. when theres a damaged bag of flour/sugar/etc. the bakery takes whats in it and puts it in their buckets :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/363636-do-you-steal-from-work/#findComment-586430988 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do have a licensed copy of IronCAD (a 3d solid modeling program) that the company I work for was throwing away when they went to the new CAD software, that costs like $5000 a seat, but I technically didn't steal it, they gave it me.
