Correct! I worked about 25 years in retail. Every security person will tell you the majority of shrinkage is due to employee theft.
"Free" tires,batteries,oil changes, and even RIDING LAWN TRACTORS went out the door; shipping records tossed or altered? to cover up. The "ordinary" $20k annual loss soared to $100k after I left. One of the junior perps was heard bragging about the thefts but to my gratification, said" We had to wait until XXXXXXX left for the day or on his day off because he was too square"
The company eventually went out of business. Pinhead fools think "the company","the gov't", "etc." have an unending supply of money and stealing won't hurt anybody !?!
