I stole from my job!! Advice please
I am a terrible horrible waste of space. I have never had a speeding ticket, I am 30 years old by the way.. and i was sitting in a jail cell for 5 hrs. last night. Worst ever. I rang up returns on gift cards, used one for $33.00 and threw the other one away. The store was able to delete the one that was not spent. I am bipolar,I am not using that as a copout ,and I have no idea why I did it and it was wrong. I threw away the 2nd one because i grew a conscience. I am facing misdemeanor petty theft charges and did nothing in my life before this. Never did drugs ever.. dont drink alcohol. I cant eat, I feel awful. I have no job and fear I might go to jail. Can anyone tell me if the judge is going to be harsh on me? Any similar situations? Thanks.

Well, I can't answer your legal questions, because i've never been there. But you're obviously feeling bad about what you've done, so you know it's wrong. So there's hope for you. All I can say is, take a deep breath, admit that you've done wrong, take your punishment, and learn your lesson. Keep your chin up, and know that EVERYONE has done something that they aren't proud of. But if you own up to it, be honest, and take what comes, it WILL work out. Stay off drugs and booze, and THINK about what you want out of life. Make a clean start.

Since you have a clean past record, it's quite possible that the judge will go easy on you and most likely put you on probation and make you pay a fine. I honestly can't see you going to jail for something like this, especially since it was your first offense. This is only my opinion and I encourage you to take full responsibility for your actions. It would look very nice on your part if you wrote your former employer an apology letter and it wouldn't hurt to write one to the judge as well. It shows maturity and that you are taking full blame in hopes to change yourself for the better.
As for getting another job, try and get something that has little or nothing to do with money. Apply at an animal shelter or apply for a secretary position at an office. As long as you are honest about your mistakes and are firm with your apologies, you'll get back on track again.
Everyone makes mistakes. Just make sure to learn from this one and you'll be able to bounce back.
