TRUE CONFESSION: STEALING STUFF FROM WORK
Speaker: When I was in high school my best friend and I got jobs at the Body Shop. Now it's a Club as much as it is a store that sells lotions and creams and soap. The first day there I decided it will be great idea to steal stuff, because it's your first day and you are stupid, so I took some eyeliner and on the way out the woman that worked there, she was like, okay, thanks for coming today, good job, I need to check your bag. And I was like, oh my god! So I made up some story about me having allergies. I was like, oh, I have left my allergy medicine in the bag and I threw the makeup at the back, I never got caught.
But for the rest of the time that I was working there, I didn't steal anything during store hours. We went and got keys made for the stored units, so we had our own keys, because this is down the basement of the Mall and we would go and take backpacks and we would just fill our bags with all the stuff that they didn't sell from the previous season. So we had like candles like from Halloween and Valentine Day's lotion, like that, because they couldn't get sell it. I don't think homeless people want expired lotion. They are homeless not retarded -- maybe they are, because they are homeless -- I don't know. So we would just take bags, and it was great, because then I had gifts to give for Christmas and birthdays. And the best part especially in high school about giving presents is that you get them back. You know that kids always brought like a bag of like homemade gifts for people on Christmas. You that in the hope that the next day someone will give you a gift.
I went to school with a lot of wealthy kids, so I give you a stone bottle of lotion, you give me a gift, that's how it works.
