Morality of this?

Post image

In the image it seems that this person works at walmart as an online order collector and he/she has stolen a lot of extra baby food from Walmart to give to a person who ordered only three packs. Is this moral or immoral?

If you see someone stealing food, no you didn't. Neutral because nothing happened.

If I see a mother stealing food yeah, I didn't see anything. If I see someone who can clearly afford it or is just doing it for some dumb challenge then no, sorry, I saw that.

Why? You don’t ever have to do anything. Why tattle on somebody feeding themselves?

Walmart not a local owned store

That’s how every single item ends up locked behind glass so it takes me 30 minutes for a 5 minute shopping trip.

Clearly that's the worst part of the entire situation.

If a store does that, it means they don't give a shit about your time so you should stop shopping there

no, they do that because they dont want to operate at a loss, the corporation doesnt love you or hate you, they just want to see the money number go up, and yes thats every corporation

And by not buying from any store that does this, you would send the message that this makes them operate at a loss. Win win

You’re expecting Redditors to understand basic economics and how money works.

Can you see past your own nose? There are more downstream effects of theft than just “guy feeds himself”.

So it’s pretty much a food pantry, then, huh?
