I said much the same thing a couple of months ago when talking about the 3D printer that we have at work.
Actually IIRC, we missed our bonus one year from employee theft. Walmart has a certain amount of âshrinkageâ allowed per store. This isnât just theft, but lost items, damaged goods that donât get scanned. A pack of pens that donât get written down as store use, etc. If you meet the goal, everyone gets a bonus (even the part time workers). I think one year I got a 6 disc Panasonic CD changer with mine (still have it.) We missed one year I was there because a lady in jewelry was stealing shit.

I am going to go with morals. And they arenât any different, people have been stealing shit since before we were people.
Its an expensive TOY, hardly diapers and formula or steaks or even booze that one needs to live.

Itâs an expensive easily resellable toy. If you urgently need diapers, itâs going to be a lot easier to steal $300 worth of lego, sell it for $100, and then buy diapers than it is to try to smuggle $100 worth of diapers out of a store.
I wonât pretend to know the motivations of this thief, but stealing a toy doesnât necesarily rule out desperation

Yeah⌠there are A LOT more items you can steal that are worth a lot more and easier to sell. If he is only stealing Star Wars legos, it is probably because that is what he collects. He might sell some too, but Occamâs razor, this guy isnât a thief because he has no alternatives.
maybe? Iâve got no relevant experience and donât have a really solid idea of what would offer the best return in terms of being easy to steal & easy to sell
