EY took my laptop bag, but I took everything else. They give you a hardware sheet of what you're responsible for. Only my laptop was on it, so only my laptop the got back. I offered up the bag because I didn't want it

@ey1 if you have ever owned a business, you would look at it differently. You are rationalizing stealing. Because one employee doesn't respect property of the business, doesn't make it okay for another employee to steal.

Because the admin doesn't care, does not mean it's okay to steal. Slippery slope.

like

When you go the asset window, "Can I have a mouse" they give you a mouse and say nothing. You keep the mouse. How in the world is that interpreted as stealing? When they first started giving out second screens they called them gifts. I understand hoarding or tricking them or playing stupid, but how in the world is these other scenarios immediately stealing? It's at best a grey area. Taking a consumable isn't stealing, it's given to you with the expectation it's used until it's useless. Taking boxes of pens? Very different
