        most theft is internal but it's the company stealing from the employees and not the other way round.

          when i first worked as a grocery store cashier my manager consistently robbed me of the daily two 15 min paid breaks i was supposed to get

          she also made me the only worker at the front in the morning, so i was running back and forth between my checkout lane and helping demeaning old people at self-checkout. soul crushing anxiety type shit

        Love throwing away entire pallets of milk and bread and other edible foods because no one is buying them and no one else can have it. These store and company owners deserve to be killed.
