I was once a bassist in DesVegas' band and I stole the Drummer's wife.

I had an office job in 1999 for 8 months… I haven't needed to buy any stationary until August this year :-)

Mostly time. I've been field based for a few years now and it's been nice to be able to pop into a guitar store for a browse or run any errands I've needed to between store visits.

Also the always awesome "working from home" which involves setting my laptop up in my music room and playing guitar all day

I'm advised I have stolen, although wholly unintentionally, the 'affections' of a colleague, a married, tall, fit, attractive, Ukranian female co-worker.

I shall steer clear.

Or fuck her.

Technically speaking, I've been stealing a salary for absolutely ages.

I steal everything I can from my work. Parts, cash, guitars, you name it.

Of course, being self-employed makes it a bit of an own goal really.

I once had a nice expensive Fluke multimeter for my own use at work. I bitterly regret not slipping it in my bag on the way out when the bastards made me redundant. They wouldn't have missed it as they got rid of all the engineers within a couple of months, and what could they do anyway?

Second time I got made redundant I had my eye on a Weller soldering station. Chickened out of that as there was one guy left making a list of assets.

About 10 years ago I was working for Currys in N Ireland next to an Electric World store when the company went into administration. The administrators had changed the locks in the belfast stores but hadn't made it to this store yet. The store manager and most of the team had cleared the place by the time the administrators got there. He just handed them the keys saying "see you lads" got in his car and left.

Twenty years in The City. I was way too honest and ethical. I know two guys who got nicked. They are well fucked. But their managers are all doing very nicely thank you. That said the majority were always honest.

Mind you They Can't Take Your Contacts Away. People stop fucking with you when they realise that you own your clients. The key to personal success is a personal franchise. It's the ultimate boss repellant.

15 years in my job and I agree

I hid a packet of softmints in a bad for a servicestation meal deal. It was the perfect crime. Either they'd ring up the the deal, or scan each item including the softmints.

I retired at the top.

My Dad never handed in his Army Combat Jacket after 12 year of service in the 60's and ealry 70's.......

So i now have a 1968 Combat jacket which my Late Father STOLE from the Army. (With extreme cold weather inner lining, Don'tcha'know !!!)

Hoorah !

Me ?

Well i once Stole the Sun from someone's Heart and they went and wrote a song about it.........

But i don't like to Brag !!!

(Much).

The LCD monitor I'm looking at right now.  

I didn't actually steal it, though... a guy from the IT department said I could have it, but I doubt the "bosses" would have approved if they'd known.

The only things I've really stolen are biscuits.

Not from work but was on a flight yesterday and was using complimentary Bose noise cancelling headphones which are over £200 a pair. Stewardess omitted to collect mine at the end of the flight and it did occur to me to "borrow" them. I just didn't want the guilt so I handed them in.

Sheeeeeeit! What airline is that?

Can you offset the loss against taxable profit though??
