The after market stereo in my car I bought from a electronic store employee in the parking lot at a $200 discount. If I don't have to pay full price....why would I?
Years ago a friend of mine worked at a neiman marcus shipping center. He would STEAL boxes of clearance items that weren't tracked(i guess because they were clearance iono) and resell them. As a friend I let him know the risk involved and told him to stop....he did not. I realized he was going sell the stuff to SOMEBODY and I'd be an idiot to miss out on the deep discount.(once in a lifetime opportunity basically). I bought a ton of it. Sue me (no pun). In this economy you have to do whatever you have to do to survive or save a buck.

Sounds like a quality friend!

I love getting cheap ****, and or free ****, and see nothing wrong with flirting and or banging to get it. I am not an attorney though.

Haha, I really enjoyed this post.

Seriously.



forex, I don't see how you knowing someone who got fired is applicable. One of the Guitar Center employees mentioned earlier that I bought from was fired (not for the item he bought for me). I don't now think, "Oh I shouldn't have bought that keyboard from Josh." If you're doing something that's somewhat risque, in any area of life, it's up to you to make sure it's done with tact. Trying to be someone's babysitter and thinking you know their occupational hazards better than they do is absolutely ridiculous.

If you were a woman and doing this, would you be a slut or a whore ?

Yes, that's what people would say. Fortunately for him he is a man and there is a double-standard.

I would still call him a man-whore, but appreciate his efforts. I believe one of my high school coaches would have described his behavior as "Selling out for the play". That is, he took one for the team by sleeping with an undesirable girl so that everyone could drink cheaper. Very similar in mantra, I think, to George Washington crossing the Delaware.

Please expound on this, my knowledge of American history is non-existent.

You'd totally get them fired. This sounds very unethical. If you're a stone cold ice king, then sure go for the discount and forget about them.

See where a little self-respect leads? Next you'll be talking dignity, strength of character, integrity, which draws like-minded people to you, and before you know it you're on some kind of life-affirming path.

Who needs that ****? Workin' the system is much more fun.

Of course it's unethical, and anyone who benefits from such a scheme is as much a thief as the employee.

I bet your current girlfriend is also fat and now your trying to justify it because its not the social norm.

Some fat chicks are hot.
