You attempted all of the justifications I thought you would - none of which would stand up in court as a defence against the offence you committed - and none of which, I venture, would convince your boss that you are safe to trust behind a till.

You have shown a very flexible attitude to morals, ethics and an important relationship of trust in your own life - and yet you promote an extremely rigid approach to breaches of morals and ethics when it involves others.

You sir, are a hypocrite.

I don't consider shorting millionaires of 40c for the sake of a changeless man a breach of my morals and ethics. More of a Robin Hood thing. I don't like calling myself a Robin Hood, but in this case I think I need to open your eyes.

You, Deane, speak only of the law, by the law. And you know the law was made in a general manner to cover any loophole, which in turn also covers the eyes. If you judge this case by the basis of the law, you are blind, or a robot.

You, sir, are a robot.

My point entirely.


More of a Robin Hood thing. I don't like calling myself a Robin Hood,

You are not a Robin Hood. Your employer tenders goods for trade. This is an honest way to make a living. He does not steal from the poor. That he is rich does not make it okay for you (or anybody) to steal from him. Forty cents (or 69 cents) buys the same amount in the same shops for your employer as it does for you or the customer to whom you gave the stolen gum. That is the point.


You, Deane, speak only of the law, by the law. And you know the law was made in a general manner to cover any loophole, which in turn also covers the eyes.

There are no shades of meaning here. No fine distinctions to draw between what is lawful or moral. There would be no cunning legal arguments for the finest legal minds to dwell over. Your theft was wrong and can be reprehended by the plainest understanding.

Your horse intestine soup, lock 'em up and throw away the key idea that you have promoted for criminals carries all of the features of the "You, Deane, speak only of the law" attitude of which you accuse me.


If you judge this case by the basis of the law, you are blind, or a robot.

I judge your case on the basis of trust, not law. Your employer placed you in a position of trust. You failed to honour that trust.


You, sir, are a robot.

I don't mind, as long as I have a death-ray gun
