Taking office supplies from a workplace is stealing. Most employers don't bother doing anything about it or they keep the expensive stuff like batteries locked up so you have to ask the office manager for them. But it's stealing. Paperclip or gasoline. Don't kid yourself.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. It is so sad to read some of these posts which try to justify stealing in the workplace. It is simply wrong to do it. Are we all to pick and choose which laws we can break and when?

What has happened to society? Stealing is wrong.

What is sad is that these guys have still not learned their lesson. I see them sleeping all over the city and when I come back by an hour later they are still snoozing. Do these guys have to clock in and out?

I cannot understand why they are on "PAID" administrative leave. That's like giving them a vacation. If they are accused of doing something wrong, they should NOT get paid until they are cleared. If they did not work for the city, they would be fired on the spot.

Dan Lahiff takes trips to Vegas every october to cheat on his wife with his girlfriend Trish. Woodard and Curran picks up his tab. Just so happens they oversee and get contracted with any and all water department out sourced work. Why does the city continue to hide this?

Jeff Whitman is a rat that hides behind his "DAD". Steve Torres is a puppet for Jeff. If the Department head wanted cameras he should have gone the route of the LPD which would have been the law abiding way to do things. The witnesses are the ones that won't come into work for a main break if Jeff ia not the foreman. The whole thing stinks. It's a vendetta for the Steroid charge that was a fact and Jeff is now out for blood at any cost. I hope the whole thing blows wide open. Waste oil has been allowed to be taken for years. No one wants it and it costs the City money to get rid of it. The supervisor who cant recall giving permission is a liar. One of the good ole boys. Wit for this trial and see who gets called to testify and what they have to say. Heads will cetainly turn.

Why hasn't the city manager fired dan lahif. he ADMITTED to taking city fueled generators to his house run by city employees on overtime. This and to a slew of other charges. Fire the manager for DISCRIMINATION!

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Pisces

Having to bow down to convention or limitations is enough to make you want to scream right now, and you'll do your utmost to rebel in any way you can. Be careful about this because you could easily get on the wrong side of someone who has power or authority over you. It feels as though you're battling with forces that want to keep you under control, and you don't like it one bit.
