I'm looking for the man who shot my paw.

i have a friend who steals from wal-mart all the time. just walks in with an old receipt, grabs what she wants, and walks out. she's probably made off with at least $4,000 worth of stuff

i also borrow moving head lights and dmx cables

lol, i wish. any time our movers change rooms they get scanned in/out.

i could probably walk out the stage door with a half-dozen lekos though and nobody would bat an eyelash.

the amount of stuff hung and secured in my house with tie line and gaff is absurd.

working in theater owns. nobody else do it though

if you’re making p dece figgies there’s no point in stealing big ticket items, so don’t do that. but I still regret not borrowing one of the old Mac Pros I had at work, since it probably got sent to be shredded and no one would have missed it.

if i had any idea how I could make at least a grand in the hand a week being my own boss I would

as it stands tho, the only reason I’m worth any money at all is because the state pays for the privilege of a white coat edging tablets into a bottle

not everyone has the privilege to be worthwhile

don’t confuse your worth was a human being with your ability to flourish in capitalist society. the two do not correlate!

this is why we steal from work. it wasn’t the things we stole that mattered; it was the dignity we stole.

while it's nice and all that we're talking about stealing from employers, i'd like to propose something actually radical: ceasing to steal from actual productive workers by quitting a tech job

it may not be as satisfying as petty theft, but it actually benefits society!

now imagine this image duplicated millions of times and broadcast throughout the world using algorithms specifically targeted at those most susceptible to such propaganda, coupled with a corporate philosophy that makes the removal of it (or similar, more insidious information) nearly impossible

perhaps we should be more concerned with working for such a company, rather than taking a stapler and feeling smug about it
