Good job, puppetmaster. Got me to jump. Why I aughtsa! RARF! RARF! WOOOOPPOOOOPPPOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU!
 
You’d think adults can be trusted enough not to steal from the company, but they do all the time.
You and OZ are onto something. Too many people do not recognize when they are stealing from work. Or they do but do it anyway. It's a vicious cycle.
Good for them, theft is how companies make their money.
I'm a company - explain how I make my money from theft.

You just file a little paperwork with the appropriate agencies and presto, rich thief!

I'm not allowed to take my cell phone into work with me, but that's because dipshits keep walking into areas with phones where they absolutely are not allowed.

So, now we all get punished.

theft and "slippage" are tax deductible. They only lose the wholesale value of the itme, but claim the full retail loss to offset their profits.

That's just a different way of saying they lose both what they paid for it and the money they could've made from it. Tax deductible is just the tax, not all the other money that was lost on it.



I'm assuming what you're calling slippage is what in some areas is refered to as shrinkage, ie: employee theft.

FWIW, Hoggz thinks any form of profiting from anything is "theft", whether it's selling an item for more than you paid for it, or getting more labor value out of a person than you're paying them....unless it works out in his favor of course, then it's righteous.

In short, "tax deductible" just means you don't have to pay tax on it, it doesn't mean it didn't cost you money.

Pretty sure you don't know what Hoggz thinks. I know you've never talked about it with him here.

Oh I'm pretty sure I do.
Read Marx or Kropotkin and that's what he thinks. It ain't like he dreamed that shit up his self. It's the left's Limbaugh, just as bloviating, just as irrational, and just as dumb.
Much easier to parrot so-called "scholars" than it is to think for yourself.
Hence the "wage for labor is theft" bullshit.

Anyone who has ever obtained work from the general populace, negotiated a price for said work, hired people to complete said work, and made it all work out in the end, knows that line of thinking is bullshit.
Those who haven't spent their lack of risk and free time bitching about the leaders while following along.

He seems to think everybody's "time spent filling the day" is worth the same - totally not acknowledging the lazy factor, both physically and mentally. Some people do more than others. Some people get up earlier. Some people spend less time in trivial pursuit. Some people have spent years in education and hands on work(and failure) to get ahead of the median worker lifestyle. Work shaming BS. "Y'all a bunch of gentrified mother fuckers!" :lol:

Dogesayer - you done anything for say 4+ years continuously, to the level where you might tell people you work IN something(a field/area) , not AT? Something where people might think you have a fair body of experience unless you were somehow just sliding along? Something where you continued your education outside of work, bought tools, etc. If you can answer YES honestly any of these, I am truly amazed you would be willing to live a economically balanced lifestyle with some lazy fuck.

The "pie" available is much bigger than our efforts. FUck, we'd die on OUR efforts alone. All those beautiful, free, natural resources.
Hope it's sunny where you are. Morning!
