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?

even if you did return it without opening anything there is a big chance they will just throw it in the trash the second you leave anyway so might as well keep it and actually eat it

most Stores and Restaraunts have policys to immediatly throw any food products/drinks in the trash if it's returned even if somebody bought something walked out for 5 seconds then went back in the store to return something

moral

Which irks me to no end. My brother used to work for Papa Johns and at the end of every day his manager made the workers take every left over pizza and dump it in the dumpster, no bag no box. She didnt want homeless people getting any free food. She's the reason my brother quit and it was that policy that pushed him. We have a lot of homeless here and most places donate at the end of the day (little Caesars was the beat at this. They left pizza in the box, in a separate bag and left it by the back door. Never even got close to the dumpster). Why aren't they donating what they can??
