You would have to understand the risk, and odds of getting caught. For me the risk and odds were so low, that It didn't worry me while committing the crime.

It worried me more figuring out ways to get rid of it, while at the same time I kept bringing more home 5 days a week.

One of the perks of the job... A cold drink at every stop. Lol!

When I first started there, I trained with an older guy. He'd say, "You get paid $200 + commission a week, and all the free soda you can drink!"

That job ruined me, because it irks me to this day each every time I have to pay for a soda.

Investing money for my future wasn't even a concept in my 19 year-old mind.

>>5210895 This to a certain degree, but you're giving me way too much credit.

Looking back, It just wasn't going to happen at the time. I was caught up in a vicious cycle of bringing it home and getting rid of it.

You have to understand what a thousand one-dollar bills look like. Stacked neatly, it nearly fills up a small shoebox.

I was already in possession of stolen cash, there was no way I was walking into a bank to make a deposit with it too.

Cases of cans and bottles just don't magically unload themselves and fly to and into the vending machines. I'd be lucky to even be able to drive right up to a machine.

Also I'm sure you've seen the delivery trucks before. They don't exactly back up to a loading dock and you just roll out a stack at a time. That means you usually have to pull them up over curbs, a few steps, maybe even a couple of flights of stairs if there's no elevator.

For maximum efficiency and conservation of time that mean full stacks on your dolly for each trip back to the truck.

It's not much the strain, but the repetitious nature of the job.
