Like your neighbor, he was just “borrowing” them.

A financial institution I worked at had this happen with a manager and gift cards as the item given then erased off the books.

The poor order approval processes, controls and audits at some companies never cease to amaze me. I can’t see this happening at the companies I worked for. We caught one exec setting up a transnational scheme and his email trail nailed him.

I’d be guilty of having 9,000 pounds of brown mulch delivered, but not tools. ;)

Took them out in his lunch box one piece at a time.

[Hatteras]

I got it one piece at a time and it didn’t cost me a dime...

Hope he gets nailed.

[Thank You Rush]

I’ll speculate on the employee’s “culture” since no one else has...in Minnesota???

9000 POUNDS OF TOOLS????...........

Like the Johnny Cash song, “One Piece at a Time” where a Cadillac was assembled from parts stolen from the line over a period of years.

“The scheme went undetected by upper management for over a year until the employee ordered approximately 9,000 pounds of tools to be delivered to his Wauwatosa apartment.”

He needs an extra 5 years in prison just for being stupid.

Tim had a problem with Booger Suger.
He’s doing okay now.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

He was going for the record of, ‘30,000 Pounds of Bananas!’

HAHA!!

ISWYDT 🤣

I wonder if the IRS might be interested in the 1 million plus windfall of employment benefits. I would think his overhead was free, and he made a boatload of money.

[dznutz]

Hope he gets nailed.

He’s screwed.

*******

+1. 9000 lbs.of tools….that’s a LOT of drill bits. Maybe hand held power tools, too. And wanting it all delivered to his apartment….🤪

[Fido969]

67 of these is a million dollars.

[high info voter]

Prison ....... NOW!!
