A few years ago the manager of our local Menards got convicted of stealing over a half-million dollars over 5 years. She only got 180 days, too, and was allowed to leave the jail for work. Depending on how high on the hog she lived for those five years, she might figure it was worth it.

I knew one local HVAC company where the office manager skimmed off six figures over something like 20 years before she got caught. Just slow and steady, never taking enough to be obvious, I guess. It happens more than people would think.

I knew a guy whose parents basically invented thrift stores. He’s accountant did the same thing while he was battling drug addiction. Not sure if she ever got prosecuted I think the owner wanted to move on. Then he died of a heart attack.
