I am a operations manager for a successfull small manufacturing company. Over the last six months I have stole over $15,000. worth of raw material and sold for scrap to support a hidden out of control 7yr oxycoton habit. I hid my habit from everyone family friends and business.
I tried to quit several times on my own. Anyway I got caught for the habit and theft. During my intitial meeting with the owner of the company he said "we have got to get you fixed" He was very concerned for my health family etc. "We will even pay you while your off" I was very shocked fiquired i had just lost my job with over 20 years of service. During this meeting we estimated just over a 10k loss. I went out got treatment. During my treatment it became aparent that he was having a slight change of heart. I did not receive pay. Our accountant and our bookkeeper may swayed his opionion on the matter. I did come back to work about a week after my detox. Right now I am in a intensive outpatient treatment for opiate abuse and working full time in my normal position. The total scrap value of the material summed 15k. The total replacement value is closer to 50K.
Can we enter a legal repayment aggreement paying the company back and them not being allowed to press criminal civil charges?
