my company's office is moving and i could have taken my office chair home but i was allowed to and that's not the same as stealing. i'd actually be making it so they'd pay less to get rid of it. so i left it it was a garbage chair anyway, not even as good as the ones i own already

A few years ago the guys on the dock had a spool come in with like 20 DeWalt hammer drills in the void space inside. We called LP with the serial numbers and they were all: "Claim's paid out, make sure they don't show up on eBay."

I used to work with somebody who would make a copy of all the code he'd written before leaving a job dude had his entire career on a NAS idk if that's stealing or not, but there is a certain logic to it

i stole from a place were i was interviewing. they asked me to help them with an expo by setting up a computer and monitor to display kibana charts and maps to show management my capabilities and such (i know it was scammy but the job was backed by a big institution with essentially blank checks). i didn't get the job. they didn't get the computer and monitor. the pc is a trash thick client (good enough for kiosks). but the monitor is a nice big one which i sometimes use.

When I was a teenager there was a guy who tried to run an absentee owner computer repair shop. He hired me and a bunch of my other high school friends to troubleshoot peoples' computers and would occasionally log into a webcam in the storefront to see if the shop was open. He lived outside of the state so we only ever saw him in person occasionally. He would order anything we wanted off of Newegg so we let him fund the construction of overpriced gaming computers covered in LEDs that nobody would buy, but which we would take home on the weekends to "test." After a long enough time not selling from the shop floor, we'd just keep the machines we'd built for ourselves. Also, anytime we needed any computer parts we would just pick out parts from the shop floor that we wanted. Most of the business profits came from installing pirated windows installs on customer's machines and then charging full retail prices + shop time. Now that I'm old though I just poo poo on the clock like an adult

my college had an Asset Recovery department, and as the tech guy for the student TV station I could fill out forms and grab whatever old servers were lying around and have them transferred over to the studio to add to my lovely video compression cluster. One day, an optioned-out IBM Z9 Mainframe showed up, with the notable exception of its hard drives. I was stocking up on keyboards, and asked if I could grab one of the RAM books out of it (worth about $20k/ea). The warehouse person looked at it, said, 'Uhm I don't see any university barcodes on it' and I threw it in my trunk. I came back the next week to grab all 16 of the fiber-optic network cards (worth $10k/ea). The whole machine had been picked bare, and it was just the cool-looking housing left and a power cable about the thickness of your wrist. Called IBM and the person on the other end of the line ran the model ID, and the only thing that came back is that it was from a config exclusively sold to the federal government, and that the specific SN I had didn't exist in their system. This was a state university, and there were multiple fully-enclosed rows of servers in the DC where the university admins did not have permission to even touch them and if anything went wrong they "called a number and people show up". I assumed  and just dropped everything at that point, and now it sits above my fireplace.
