It just sounds improbable to me that employees are stealing that much, at least at the corporate places I've worked it's pretty hard to steal unless you're a manager and even they just steal the crappy stuff, like my manager at Victoria's Secret took a yoga ball once we were done with it from the window display. IDK…

I know, I followed the link to one of the blogs and there's a post that says "Oh and be sure to steal from Anthropologie/Urban because the owner is a dick but the clothes are cute"
