I love it how words get twisted around here to make me really look like the bad guy. Now all of a sudden my work has 5 gallon jugs of bottled water that my employer is bringing in??? I clearly said from the beginning my work has tap water that is run through a large reverse osmosis tank. I looked it up, and the water cost is $1.16 per 1,000 gallons. In other words, the 2 gallons of water I took home was costing the compant a penny a week. You guys really need to get a life.

LV Drunk, if the DUI has been over five years. You should try for hotel security downtown. You wll get paid alittle more with benefits and free meals and the job will keep you busy.
Thanks, but I got my DUI 3 years ago.

Given the magnitude of your crime, I propose that we start calling you "Bernie Madoff".

No, we just dump our waste into Lake Mead and let it flow to AZ.

Its not the cost its the principle...employers are generally not in the business of providing their employees with water for home use.

Also (and this isn't meant to be taken personally) I don't feel sorry for anyone who has gotten a DUI let alone several DUI's. I just hope they learned something from the experience.

LOL... dude, I wrote about the 5gal jugs that I used to get at home v. tap. No one said you were getting 5 gallon jugs! Jezzz, a little touchy, eh?

If it helps, I've known a lot of security guys that weren't exactly straight laced. For that matter, cops too. You already said you didn't think of it as a crime. It is sort of nit picky, but fun to rib you about it.
