Um, yeah, okay... man, the truth of it must not make you look good.
Tell you what: You tell me under what circumstances it would be okay to steal thousands of dollars from an employer, and make a convincing argument, and I'll give you all the details you want...
I can actually come up with one situation where it probably isn't legal, but I would have absolutely no problem with it: a bounced paycheck. Bounce a paycheck and the guy takes the money from the company? Yeah, I'm fine with that!
