When youre in a desperate situation,stealingmight seem like a great way to temporarily solve your problems.
The problem with this, however, is that youre almost always going to get caught.
He was kind enough to have a chat withBored Pandaand explain whats happened since he made this post.
I did get some of the money back.
I had been up all night trying to arrange the drop-off.
I have video evidence that she stole something, but its hard to make out the amount.
I suspect a bundle of ones, which would make it $100.
I havent counted the bundle yet, so I cant confirm if it matches with my records.
I will call the police if they set foot on the property, he added.
Im still debating whether I should report her to the police.
Ive known my employee for about 3 or 4 years.
Hes mostly a quiet guy and works hard.
I know he was using some drugs before he worked for me.
He also added that the womans 9 and 10-year-old daughters are not the employees children.
I have to think about those types of things because its a big motivator for theft.
Ive had employees steal from me before.
In that case, it was a cashier who was returning phantom items and pocketing the cash.
So I just fired her.
Which is why Im seriously considering it now.
People shouldnt feel that they can get away with it, or Ill face the same thing again shortly.
Ive had customers steal as well, but like in most businesses, the employees are the biggest thieves.
According toEmbroker, a whopping 75% of employees admit to stealing from their bosses at least once.
Employees are also responsible for 90% of all significant theft losses in companies.
It was part of a well crafted plan.
As I reviewed the video, I was amazed at the coordination.
I was completely in the blind while they plotted around me.
Its a retail business.
I have a locked office that I usually secure and where I count cash.
After she asked me, she hid behind some shelves and boxes.
I didnt leave my office right away because I was busy.
I then left my office and left the door ajar.
When I left, she came out of her hiding space.
All of this is on tape, which is how I pieced it all together.
The amount she stole that night was in the thousands.
I dont buy it for a second that the mom wasnt behind everything.
I suspect that these were not the first two times theystolemoney.
I just cant prove it.
They seemed just too polished and cool and collected about it.
Like they had experience.
