    your story made me think about my own: i worked with a guy that got arrested on the job for stealing a 200 dollar beef loin (different company). he got hired even with this record lol cause grocery stores can be suprisingly desperate for skilled help. he had a pretty bad drug habit and stole meat to trade to his dealer. it sucks because he was being waaay too greedy, and lighting the rest of us up with our casual ganking and made me paranoid since he was going outside with pockets full like 4 or 5 times a day. surprisingly he kept it up for like 7 years, no LP or anything. a week ago he gets fired for stealing a 1 dollar bag of rice, caught by the store manager. not sure if there's a lesson here besides be careful cause your luck can run out.
