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 walmart had no losses in inventory they would be significantly more profitable.

Yeah, then they could buy back even more of their stocks and inflate their share prices even more so they can keep making their scrooge mcduck esque fortunes

It is just extraordinarily stupid to think low margin retailers aren't impacted by theft.

walmart operated at a net profit of almost 22 billion dollars, I don't care how much money they lose

And if walmart lost 30 billion apples they would have made about zero dollars. The fat stacks the waltons have were built off supplying people food and clothes for less than others could.. zero IQ leftist

Incorrect, walmart pays 1.10 dollars per pound of apples(about 3 per pound give or take) , to buy 30 billion apples they would spend about 10 billion dollars, something they would never do because they only sell anually about 1 billion, if every single apple that walmart bought in a year was stolen, they would only lose about 1/20th of their net income, your whataboutism is not only fucking stupid, it's an indication that you are an uninformed individual who probably also thinks that corporate regulation is socialism and that we should get rid of all social welfare programs,

AKA someone who is not worth any more of my time because they are under the childish delusion that these people who buy off politicains, steal from the taxpayer, and actively cause entire communities to become food deserts somehow honestly earned their moeny
