16. Yeah, right. I remember when a certain retail company came in
and bought out the retail company I worked for. The first day they were there, the had one of their Loss/Prevention people come in to talk to us.

"At (name censored), we believe that everyone is a theif. If you haven't stolen yet, then you just haven't had the opportunity." :eyes:

This company ripped off their customers worse than anything I've ever seen before or since. Most of the employees that were working at the store when they took over had been their for eight to ten years... there were only about ten of us and theft was never a big problem at the store until they took over. It was the people they brought in that got into trouble for theft.

I believe that a company reaps what it sows. If they treat everyone like a theif (and also rip off their customers and employees), they are going to have more employees steal from them than if they treated their employees with a bit more dignity...

(For the record, I never stole from them, and I would not have worked for them for slightly over a year if we hadn't been in the middle the first Bush recession with no other jobs to be had.)
