Every single tech job I've had has had people like his.

I've seen people empty drink refrigerators into duffle bags before the weekend.

There was a guy who took dozens of travel-sized deodorants from the bathroom and kept them in his desk (and still didn't use them...)

There was someone who would pressure the cafeteria staff for 10 "to-go" meal containers.

All highly-paid engineers. Money doesn't buy class

It's incredible how often I've seen this. Same here--every single tech job, there's at least someone who does this. And it's always the same excuse/justification when you see them doing it: "The soda's free, bro! If they didn't want me to take it, they'd put it in a vending machine!"
