12/15 I hear a lot about stealing office supplies. What does this mean? I
lose pens like crazy. A lot of them end up at home, I think. But I
usually just get more from the supply closet when I need them. Does
that count as stealing?
\_ You dirty thief! People like you cost your company 10's if not
100's of dollars a year!
\_ Isn't it pretty self-descriptive? It means when you steal
office supplies.
\_ I don't know, it's described in as pretty common. (In Dilbert,
for example.) But I can't really imagine anyone stealing a bunch
of post-it notes. Do you re-sell them on ebay or something?
Throw them in the trash? What?
\_ You just admitted you steal pens, so maybe it's more
common than you think.
\_ Generally speaking, if you're noting taking boxes or handfuls at
a time, you're probably not the problem. |
