Do you do it? I should be on the FBI ten most wanted list... I've take a few pens and some sticky notes.

I worked at Intel. I have a Razor Boomslang 1000 that came from my girlfriend's dad's lab because they had extras.

If I got a separate charge of theft for every pen I "stole" from work by accidentally leaving in my pants pocket, I'd probably be eligible for the death penalty!

At one of my first co-op jobs, one of my co-workers made a point of taking boxes and boxes of pens home. It wasn't that he needed pens (he just put them in his garage or something), he just had to feel like he was pulling off this major scam.

I don't think he ever upgraded to pads of paper or sticky-notes though.

You stole a monitor? Thats not an office supply, thats called office equipment! Whats wrong with you? I doubt they just had a stack of extras and you could go get another one of out a droor~!

I don't know if "stealing" is exactly the right word. If you took office supplies from your office to send along with your child to school, then, yes, that would be stealing. However, if you have a few pens and paper pads at home and you do use them while you do some work at home, then I wouldn't consider that stealing.

BAH!

I usually have to go buy supplies from Office Max! Increasing military budgets my @ss!

:)

I am left handed and the only pens my squadron will buy have the "4 days to dry" ink. I go to Sam's Club and buy the El Cheapo Bics and come away with kleeeeeen handzzz

:)

I do have a spiral notebook (standard issue) I keep with me. (I do take it home, I guess)

You know how an item is on sale at Staples for $49.99 and you have a $10 off $50 coupon, so you have to add a bag of rubber bands or a box of paper clips to get the total over $50?

I had so many paper clips and rubber bands at home that I was smuggling them into work.
