@j_roby posted a Gravel Institute tweet that deserved its own post.
This is the story that tweet was based on.
[Image description: picture of a tweet from @GravelInstitute stating "Someone stole $950 worth of items from a Walgreen’s - there were 309 stories about it. Walgreen’s was caught stealing $4.5 million from employees - it got just one single story.]
I know a lot of people are going to look at this and conclude that wage theft is a big issue, but can we talk about the REAL issue at hand...
Y'all not shoplifting enough. I mean I'm sure some of you are doing your best, but times are tough and we need to pull together as a team, as a family, to hit our targets this quarter. So get out there and think big. I don't want to hear about packs of gum and candy bars, I wanna see TVs, iPhones, laptops... We've got this, go team!
Stealing from big corporations is demonstrably a morally good act.
The numbers are staggering.

The appropriate place to report wage theft. You also need to be able to identify it when it happens to you!
