If your computer gives you a laptop and you quit the next day you can probably get away with keeping the laptop.. but the right and lawfull thing to do would be to give it back.

It shows the character of someone to not just give back a 20k item or whatever it is to the guild that got you it if you truly planned on quitting.

There no excuse or worldy quote that can absolve someone of being just straight up greedy.

I never said anything can absolve someone of being greedy. I clearly said that my point did not justify greedy behavior.

Let me rephrase it to make things clearer, using your example. If your work *gives* you a laptop, without any sort of contract (as they would irl) and you leave the company without returning it...it is just as much the company's fault as it is yours for being greedy.

In eq, we don't use contracts for guilds....it's a damn video game. So, I simply submit the statement that if a guild is not prepared for the recipient of any item to walk at any time for any reason (as is the individual liberty in eq) they shouldn't be awarding the item in the first place.

.

Its funny that this example came up. Two weeks ago my company got me a badass new laptop to replace my PC that died in my office. I can't stand the place anymore and am actively searching for a new job while all the while trying to figure out how I can get away with keeping the brand new laptop.

Any suggestions? I never had to sign anything, they just gave it to me one day.

I dunno man, you're in Texas right? That's like the Wild West of labor laws - I think they could get away with burying you in the desert if they can't take the cost of the laptop out of your final check.

Here in California, the state would say "that shit is YOURS bro - employer was teh stoopid for giving it to you without having you sign something".

If you keep it, watch out for the subpoena.
