I do. I cant help it... there's a whole box of stamps that my co worker uses to send out the mail.. just sitting there... any kind of stamp I want, $1, .37, shitloads of them. Stamps are so damn expensive.. and especially right now I have a lot of Christmas cards to mail out.

They dont keep track of them really.

I'm a terrible person. :tsk: :reject:

Yes, yes you are. :D

And so am I because I do the same thing. :reject:

I'm sowy!!! But my boss did say at one point that we can take them. :(

I have to admit, I do this too. I can't remember the last time I bought stamps. Oh well, I don't feel to bad because my boss does it too, and he makes a ton of more money than I do.
 
Well considering my boss drives 2 mercedes, a convertible jag, another jag, and a mercedes SUV.... and lives in a $7 million dollar estate around the corner, I dont think she'll miss a few stamps.
 
well I don't know where they keep the stamps at work so I can't steel them :cute:

sometimes I *borrow* disks...including zip disks...and *forget* to bring them back :lol:
 
One time, at work, my co-worker and I got bored, so I took a can of that foaming cleaner stuff, and he and I went in the back room together and just went nuts with it. Afterwards, I felt bad wasting an entire can of cleaner...but it was a lot of fun! :laugh:

*cough cough* Oh dear :ohmy:

I broke my workbench on purpose. We had this habitual liar druggie as a assistant manager for awhile. He'd get into screaming matches right on the sales floor with other sales associates. One time I had enough of him and I had to take it out on something. So I slammed the stockroom door into the workbench over and over again. After I told the store manager about the incident, that guy was gone within a week heh heh.
 
I think is the natural balance of things. I work for the fucking governement and I have to bring my own CDs to to back ups on the servers here. How fucking stupid is that shit. I kept asking and bugging and finally gave up. I think I will start stealing printer paper to make up for it.
 
We have a postage machine, and yes, I have been known to use it in the past for personal letters.

I am also in charge of the stationary orders, so I frequently order myself pretty pens and note pads... and I too have 'borrowed' many a disk and never returned them. :crack:

It's all part of the circle of life. :D
 
The pens here suck. They INSIST on ordering nothing but extra fine. I hate extra fine.

MEDIUM PEOPLE MEDIUM !!!!

They're not even worth stealing. :(
 
Sicy...is that ALL you steal????

Sicy, I do the same thing. Not only do I steal stamps, but I also steal: envelopes, scotch tape, notepads, message pads, and pens (and you're right, very fine points are crap-ass pens).

Also, every once in a while, I'll buy myself some lunch from petty cash. :silent:

Not to mention that I steal Hours and hours of time from them while I'm on this internet thing.

:wave:

Hey you know what...I would hate to have me work for me!!!
 
Ok well.. I've taken scotch tape before.. and white out.. and post its :reject:
 
We have a postage meter. I mean, it's just sitting there for anybody to use...:reject:

Let the rationalizing begin!

Well, first of all, I work many more hours than I am paid for. Just because I am super-employee.

And how about all those business errands I run on my gas.

And then there are those parking costs for our evening events. How many times have I dished out those 2 bucks from my own pocket?

And then there were those two times I had leftover salads in the fridge that were scheduled to be my dinner and my boss said, "Who's salad is that in the fridge? Can I have it?"

On and on.

So, the postage meter it is...

Actually, this problem seems to be sweeping the nation!
