It is always ethical to steal from corporations.

Don't steal from locally owned small businesses. Don't steal from your community.

The wealth hoarders are stealing from you, however. Every single day, for as much as they can get away with. Take what they stole back.

This is very sad news.

Of course, I mean it's sad that he was caught.

where he allegedly used the restaurant’s register to ring up roughly 800 orders of macaroni and cheese trays and then issue refunds to his personal credit cards.

Jail is full of people who stuck a gun in someone’s face and posted it to facebook. Seriously, it’s mind-boggling how often people get crazy-ass long fascist jail time because they texted “yeah i did it” to somebody.

People. Don’t do it. If you gotta do crime, start an AI company.

Just another case of when is enough enough. Just because you got away with it the first 100 times doesn't mean you keep doing it forever. Dude should have been less greedy and realize someone will catch on eventually. What i wonder is why did he pick the mac n cheese as the only item? I would imagine it wouldn't matter what item it was so what was the logic.

They should pay people enough to live and this wouldn't happen.

Wages are set by franchise locations, not corporate.

But embezzling $80k is a bit outside of necessity.

Ah yes cuz that’s certainly the issue. Definitely can’t be the person being a pos taking the money for drugs, just because, or other reasons

No, he went in off shift, out of uniform, walked behind the counter, and processed them all at once. This was not well planned.

If it's what went on at the subway down the street when i was a teen, this "trick" requires you to remember the prices and tax of an item. He was probably only smart enough to remember the one item's price or didn't care to change it up.

…not exactly the brightest candle on the cake (emphasis mine)

by processing roughly 800 fake macaroni and cheese tray refunds to his personal cards.

Read the article, that’s not how it went down.

You should have your friends who are on shift do this, little by little, so that nobody notices.
