Dana,

I understand what you're saying, I managed a Pizza Hut for 7 years, and my quarterly bonuses were a large part of my income and were based on things such as food costs, so when people stole from the restaurant or left without paying, in a big way it directly affected me. However, it did not bother me nearly as much as when my apartment was broken into and my TV, stereo, etc., were stolen. HUGE difference in how I felt...........
