When I was in college, I had a security job. I literally watched a huge building on the weekends. It was in a bad part of town, so walking around that big, dark building was nerve wracking. I had a time clock, and had to punch 15 keys per hour. For two years, I made my rounds on the hour. Ten minutes of running around that place. Then back to the janitorial closet, and my homework. After two years, my boss asked me to mix up my rounds. When I mixed up my rounds, I saw a lot of people doing things in that building they shouldn't have. Did I care? No! It was nothing life, or death, and I wasen't going to die over $7.49/hr. Nor, would I ruin some guys life. No--I wasen't a good security guard, but the patrons always got their lost purse/wallet back, if I found their items. People don't like to hear this, but so much theft is internal. Entities like to blame professional criminals, drug addicts, etc., but so much theft is internal. The people higher up in the organization stole the most. It was then middle management. And then Cops stole--wow, it was staggering, but they were pretty slick. And the thefts were always blamed on gangs, the homeless, or that new janitor. I stayed quiet, and watched their behavior. I can usually walk through any store, and spot which employee is stealing. I have found they are usually overly enthusiastic, care too much about following exact procedure, and they are usually the last person in the organization you would expect would have a dark side, and never complain. In other words, the person who gets the managent promotion. (I don't want to argue. I won't be back. If you do have a problem with stealing, really try to stop. If you can't stop, be smart. Don't steal enough to rack up a felony. I believe it's over $500? Don't ever walk into a establishment with no money. I forget what it's called, but it racks up big charges. If you are stealing because of the thrill it brings, take up intence exercise, or see a therapist. And try to take on Robin Hood morality; Never take from the poor. Don't let the innocent guy take the fall. Be a stand up guy?)
