Phennommennonn Forum Administrator User ID: 882428 United States 06/11/2010 03:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | remember the michael keaton movie - clean & sober? he embezzled, nutted up months later w/a promise to repay, and got pissed when they terminated him. political correctness is a doctrine.... fostered by a delusional, illogical minority...... and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media; which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end. |

Winningjob User ID: 385114 United States 06/11/2010 03:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I hear you OP, it is always disheartneng when an employee steals. I remember watching my assistant manager steal while doing deposits and when I called her into my office all I had to do was pull out the form and then asked her if I needed to explain why she was being written up and terminated..she said no. |

Seamus User ID: 989297 United States 06/11/2010 03:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have employees. And that means I've had them steal from me. But yours is different than any I've ever encountered: A) Yes, he stole $40.... B) But, he clearly is not used to being a thief... otherwise, the cop's arrival would not have fazed him in the least. C) In fact, he was sooo unhinged that he crapped his pants and had to go home. This most certainly proves he is not a polished thief. D) He readily admitted to his transgression. Others will disagree, but IMHO you should re-consider firing him. My guess, based on his reaction to committing the crime, is that he ain't about to steal again. If he does, what's next? Crapped pants and puke??? Now that he has tried thievery he knows it isn't for him. Shame, humiliation, degridation, guilt... it is all there. Anyway - just something to consider. 'When Plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men, they create for themselves, in the course of time, a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.' Frederic Bastiat, 'The Law' 1850 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." JohnSwinton, 1830-1901, Former chief-of-staff New York Times ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The bold effort the present bank has made to control the Government, the distress it has wantonly produced ... are but premonitions of the fate that awaits the American People should they be deluded into a perpetuation of this institution (The Bank of the United States), or the establishment of another like it."

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 999817He passed the application and interview process?? I checked his references, did a background check and then interviewed him. During the interview he did astoundingly well. The girls on the night shift both thought he was the best thing since sliced bread. After I caught him stealing, his demeanor took a strange turn. |

BRIEF AND TO THE POINT User ID: 381742 United States 06/11/2010 03:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You don't own a store at Niagara Falls do you? Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |

The Spirit gave him a true wake up call when the cop walked in straight afterwards - no doubt it was the spiritual aspect that caused his bowels to loosen. He is stubborn though - asking for his job back - wow, just wow. All great truths begin as blasphemies. Nobody's sister set it up the bomb so talk to her. Siriusly ... most of the time I'm only jokering around. Sanity is a crazy man's crazy in a crazy world. :Exile: |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 779573 United States 06/11/2010 03:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I work in construction and recently had to fire an employee who was supposed to be in charge, but only dropped off his guys to work and left the job site for the day. A few days later, the guy came to my shop while I was away and stole some things. Well, I had a hidden camera activated by motion, and when I called him and confronted him with my evidence, he went into total denial. I told him I had pix and that if he returned my stuff, I wouldn't press charges. I gave the idiot a chance and he still wouldn't fess up or make amends. Not even an apology. So, I was forced to make a formal police report and press charges. What the hell is wrong with people these days? Not only are they malicious, but they are just plain stupid. |
