Nor was my use of the term "highway robbery." :-) You’re absolutely correct, BeThisWay! :-)

An dshould. But unless your employer says that he can only buy soda from them it's not stealing. Your friend is giving them his money with his eyes wide open. You can call it a stupidity tax, but not theft. Not the same thing as pilfering pens in any way, shape or form. THAT is stealing. One certainly does not justify the other. Not even a little tiny bit.
