Re: coworker stealing from other coworkers

Management does not have to fire someone. It is not a hostile work environment as you describe it. The employees might try approaching whomever is in charge, but in the end, it is his or her decision. That's why they call it management. If everyobne quit, that would send the message, but you may not feel that strongluy about it.
