Aunty Bella: Miss. Temptations in the Workplace

This BellaNaija reader is facing some serious temptation in the workplace and she needs your advice – should she indulge or stay away?

I graduated from the university last year and I intend to further very soon but for the main time I decided to get a job at a very huge establishment as the cashier, we sell every technological advancement you can think of: laptops, scanners, photocopying machines, printers, airport seats, office seats, cables, calculators, computer games etc.

Most times we sell up to 4 or 6 million Naira in a day.

We’re 6 in total – four guys and two girls. The other girl is something else, she steals everything, she sells and pockets the money, she’s everywhere. She makes her salary in a week or sometimes two weeks. It’s irritating and yes it’s annoying. To be honest, I feel tempted to do the same, I mean if you think about it everyone steals, from politicians, pastors, businessmen and women, everyone.

I’m the cashier and I can do so many things there but I’m scared and my conscience won’t let me but at the same time I’m jealous of this lady, I mean who wouldn’t be? I can’t report her to our bosses, it’s out of the question, but please what can I do? Should I shun my conscience and go with the flow? What if I’m caught?

The shame alone would kill me, please fellow BN readers help me, this temptation is too much.
