"Man admits stealing wallet of company president during job interview"

“I wanted to work for that company, but since I haven’t got a job I needed money,” Shogo Takeda, 24, said in owning up to the charges, according to the police.
Takeda is suspected of stealing the wallet containing ¥50,000 in cash from the president’s bag during the interview at an elevator maintenance company in Seya Ward, Yokohama, on the evening of Nov. 10.
Police believe Takeda took advantage of easy access to the bag when the president briefly left the room.

That's the verbal expression of a fantasy: Get rewarded for self-indulgence; anti-social behavior; wrongful conduct.

Happens in the movies. Fiction.

Wow 7.3. Fortunately nearly 2 orders of magnitude less than 9.1 in 2011.
