Stealing Food From Employers

-I worked at Domino's for about 2 years delivering pizzas. In my time there I saw an insane amount of pizza stolen by employees. Stealing sodas and pizzas was very common at our store until new managment took over ran a much tighter ship. Co-workers would have friends call in orders and then cancel the order which would leave the store with extra pizzas. I honestly don't think our store made money until the new managers arrived.

My property manager at my appartment used to own a Mexican restaurant which he had to shut down due to employee theft. He said he found some workers grilling pounds and pounds of carne asada stolen from the store at a BBQ. They had broken into the store and taken about 30lbs of steak. Any of you guys have stories from restaurants or fast food chains you worked at?

I never worked in the food industry, but a friend of mine used to work at Baskin Robbins when we were in highschool. We would all go in and get something... hand him a ten, and he would give us back our change which always equalled $10. He did it this way because they had a camera in the store.

I know a guy who works at a grocery chain's local warehouse where he picks the orders for the trucks that go to the stores. He wears an apron over his clothes and inside the warehouse it is air-conditioned and refridgerated. So, they don't notice that he is wearing a rope around his neck. Every day he hooks like half a dozen steaks onto the rope underneath his clothes and walks by security that only checks bags. He then tries to sell them on the street outside his apartment. What a goddamn skid.

When I put myself through school I worked as a waiter during the summer at a fancy joint. There were only a few incidents. But one time I remember...I was out all day, didn't eat, customer pissed me off, tray with his beef wellington was on my shoulder bringing it between the kitchen and the dining room. Craned my neck over while walking. CHOMP!

I forgot about my friend who worked at Thrifty's Ice Cream who was fired for giving ice cream to friends. He ended paying the store $500 for embezzled ice cream.

I worked at a liquor store for a year and a lot of my fellow employees stole beer. The store didn't track inventory very well for some of the high volume sellers such as cases of Bud Light and Coors Light so a few people would walk out with these almost daily. We also got an employee discount, which no one really hesitated to pass along to any friend (or hot girl) that came in.

When I quit working there it was getting pretty bad and I'm pretty sure the [censored] hit the fan not long after I left.

A friend of mine worked at a video for about a year until it closed. At first it was little stuff like wiping a late fee, then it was free rentals, and by the time paychecks started bouncing he'd just take movies from the place. They also got high in the backroom and played porno in the back of the store on slow days.

Sometimes I drink my boss's Pepsi when he leaves one in the fridge at work.

Does this count?

i sued to work at a bagel shop. there was no stealing at all at it. i mean not even day-old bagel (but why would you want to?).

it also helped that the managers would give away free/half-price meals for us.

Is there anyone here who would consider buying a steak from some guy on the street?
