I used to work as a security guard, and you should've heard the excuses people came up with to justify their shoplifting when I was working for a store. Some kids said an adult told them it was okay. Adults were teaching kids to do this, because kids get lesser charges filed against them because of their age. Then there are the kleptomaniacs who have good jobs, no money problems, but because they are so insecure they feel the need to steal. There was one case where a couple claimed they stole the cartons of cigarettes they were caught with were going to be sold so they could buy food for their kids. They turned out to have nearly $30 on them. Why didn't they get food stamps? And of course there were the kids who stole for kicks.
You certainly picked a good handle for yourself. If the mods knew your real name, they'd give a heads up to Cast Relations not to hire you. Have you ever really looked at a job application? Being caught and charged with a felony like stealing, can really screw you. The only jobs you will be able to get will be dinky little minimum wage jobs, because you will never be trusted again. Look ahead to the future--how do you suppose that will affect your retirement benefits? Most people in my generation thought they'd be able to retire when they hit 62, but now they're finding that they're going to have to either continue working until 70, or until they drop dead, because the cost of living is just too expensive. Stealing can really mess your life up, no doubt about it. By the way, have you ever thought that maybe if you steal from others, others might steal from you? What goes around comes around, karma is a bitch, and you reap what you sow. If you're smart, you'll contact everyone you stole from and make restitution before it's too late.
Who do you think you are to be asking if my parents loved me or not!?!?!? THANK YOU ALL FOR THE LESSON. NOW IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND, GET THE HECK OFF MY BACK...I'M SORRY OK, I DIDN'T THINK I WAS DOING ANYTHING WRONG IT'S NOT LIKE I WAS PRINTING THEM OUT OR ANYTHING....GEES...YOU PEOPLE MUST HAVE NO LIVES OR SOMETHING TO ALL GANG UP ON ME...AND NO I WOULDN'T EVER STEAL ANYTHING ELSE FROM DISNEY!! And if someone stole something from my cart, well there's really nothing I could do about because you weren't allowed to leave your cart...what's done is done, I won't do it anymore...now will you leave it alone???? Gosh

Your defenses? (1) The bank didn't notice the money missing; (2) Other people have embezzled money; (3) I made a legitimate withdrawal on the same day that I stole the rest; and (4) The bank's accounting software made it easy for me to transfer the money.

Just how far do you think you'd get with the jury? :p:
That's a totally different scenario though, that 100,000 dollars, these are just a few pictures....

Nowhere before now did you say you weren't printing them. Naturally the assumption was that if you stole them you printed them out. Why wouldn't it be wrong to steal them? While they are of you the photos didn't belong to you. Disney owns the rights to all of the photos taken on their cameras.

If someone stole a bunch of things from your cart at a time or you see them stealing a few things at a time numerous times wouldn't you call Security? I would and have called Security on shoplifters before (and they got busted big time).

So it is okay to steal small amount but not big amounts? Where do you draw the line? Is it okay to steal $20 but not $30, $50 but not $100? Stealing is stealing, no matter the amount.

They are not "just pictures", they are products Disney sells. Of course Disney charges for the pictures, it is in business to make money. Those pictures weren't free to produce anyway, Disney had to buy the cameras, flashes, PDAs, WiFI equipment, printers, paper, ribbon, etc. It also has to pay people to take the photos, setup and maintain the equipment, etc. If everybody thought like you and stole the photos instead of buying them I guarantee you Photopass would be disbanded as it would cost Disney more to have it than not.


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

You need to really rethink a lot of things. I would suggest that you purchase an open ended return ticket for your air fare to your CP program. I have a feeling you will be needing it.
