The wife's job
I’ve often said that Lauren works with idiots at her job, but I think this story really shows the extent of that idiocy. One of the best cashiers at her store – she is a several time cashier of the month and well liked by all – was arrested at work last week. Someone had left his credit card at the register, and, like a good entrepreneur, she took it. The card was used at numerous Wal Marts along with the perpetrator’s employee discount card. This is absurd for two reasons. First of all, she’s putting her name in the database as using her card at the exact same time as the stolen card; this made catching her relatively easy. Furthermore, it’s a stolen card. Why does she need 10% off something she’s getting for free? Did she only wanted to steal 90% of the cost of her purchase?
Lauren’s job is so bad, I can understand her getting so mad that she has to let it out by poisoning people, so long as it’s not me.

I think that was rather courteous of her. I've known of lots of people who won't take that extra time to ensure that the person whose credit card they use gets the discount.
It reminds me of the guys where I used to work for Mcminimum Wage, who'd memorize the price of meals so that they could charge people for a water and keep the money. It seems like the risk is worth far less than the reward.
that's just insulting. if you're going to bother to steal, at least do it with a little intelligence! and taste - don't use the stolen card at freakin' wal-mart! at least shop at some fancier stores.
The problem you both address is likely caused by the fact that, as a general rule, only idiots commit petty theft crimes. By definition, the perpetrator is going to be a imbecile with poor taste. This includes my sister-in-law, the shoplifter.
