First, let's be clear: this is an article about petty theft. There are thousands of people out there who happily steal money, cars, jewelry, identities... But this article is strictly about the little things that each and every one of us has stolen in life. Whether it's cute jams or soap in a hotel, we're all guilty of at least one of these ten cases of theft.
1. Hotel soaps and shampoos
There must be a reason that hotel chains around the world put more than one bar of soap or shampoo in the basket. This is because they know that the guests will "serve themselves".
2. Beer glasses
Everyone with some room in their purse or backpack has at one time or another dropped a beer glass. Since they are not exactly easy to steal, this is even more of a challenge. And when we get home, of course, he has a place of honor.
3. Hotel towels
The rule is: the smaller the towel, the easier it will be to fit in the luggage. Hotels usually have quite strict rules, even for small thefts. But god forbid they charged you for Wi-Fi...then the towel theft is justified.
4. Pens at work
At work, pens are often offered by themselves, they "hide" in cupboards and on tables. And there is always something less at the end of the day. The culprits must be the same as with socks in the washing machine - we never see them, and things disappear.
5. Toilet paper
The glory of stealing toilet paper goes back even further, to school and college days, to various homes filled with people and shared bathrooms. More of a necessity than a theft, what do you say?

6. Glasses for brandy
On the other side of the spectrum, there is a type of theft that is only committed under the influence of certain substances. Realistically, what will we do with glasses for "this short"? These "exams" are usually only held in bars.
7. Jokes
True pranksters are not some kind of cult, they are just smarter and funnier than the rest of society. And we are also clever enough to pick something up quickly or, to put it more correctly, steal a good joke and chew on it countless times.
8. Packets of jam or Nutella
Many times we return to the old habits we had as children. How much pleasure will we actually get from a packet of jam? On top of that, we still have a glass of better jam in the fridge. This is "if it's in front of me and free, I'll take it" style theft.
9. Road signs
Is immaturity or naivety to blame? It's our fault. This time you can face a fine, so be careful.
10. Wi-Fi
People without internet access will be shameless. They will do anything to get their precious email. Hopefully in the future WiFi will be like beer and beer like water and everything will be free. Fun fact: Did you know that Wi-Fi actually means nothing?
