Honestly, no, I don't think so. I've taken things home to keep, with permission (limited design beer glasses, mostly, some old uniforms once the design changes); and I've taken home disposable supplies without permission (steel scrubs, sharpies, expo markers); and I've taken things that would otherwise be thrown out to give as gifts (best one was a six-inch Le Creuset enameled cast iron Dutch oven).

But if a job treats me right I don't steal, and if they don't I either force them to or leave.
