They could easily be ripping us off too and we wouldn't even know. The product he's taking is miniscule when only taking a small amount, Ive even been told by my old supervisor to grab some when I needed it and not to worry about it. But this dude is taking it to a whole other level...taking case after case of the most expensive shit everyday. Sometimes so much he has to dolly it out to his car. In a way the company deserves it for being so stupid but its still not right.

I think the way I'm going to go about it is to tell the owner he needs to put a camera in the parking lot and have it recording in the morning. Hopefully that will be enough and he'll get the hint.

offer up to your boss to revamp an inventory process to limit loss etc. maybe use it to your advantage? no idea on the size of the company you work for though.

Yeah I would. I wouldn't want to be considered complicit.

I agree, you probably could get into trouble by not saying anything...

Jesus.

Yeah. It's ridiculous.

Go to your boss and tell him you believe the guy is stealing.

Some people didn't have a person to teach them so it's a gray area for them. It's a simple concept.

It's stealing.

If you see it and do nothing about it, you're just as guilty and deserve whatever you get when that time comes. It's really stupid not to do something about it. As an employee, you want your employer to make a lot of money. If they do, you stand a better chance of doing well for yourself. If they don't, you stand zero chance of doing well at that job. If you see the tires on the company vehicle running low, air them up to proper operating pressure even though you don't have "tire pressure engineer" in your title.

FFS MTG! Do the right thing. I would hope you know what that is.

is this a trick question?

I probably would not, but I would distance myself from that person entirely.

Subway doesn't monitor their inventory in my city, I was with a girl and she would make me free subs and even bring them to me sometimes. Sometimes I would text her that she should bring me a sub for dinner. Conspiracy to commit sandwiching?

But yeah, report him.
Who knows, it could come down you you vs him, regardless of seniority.

Do you know how hard it is to unload 164 cartons of camel lights?

Stealing is hard work.

Yes, you call him out and report him.

But I'm not shocked you need advice on this. Teenagers were running trains on your wife and you probably licked her from head to toe the next day.

Just do a search. That thread has to be in the Hall of Classics.
