Wait! How would someone spend money given to him for office supplies in his workplace on gambling?

[Min George]

A colleague of mine has been given suspension from work. He was given money to buy office supplies and he used the money to bet on sports and lost. How would someone act so financially reckless? What is it with gambling that people can't control their spending?

 

[Kross]

That's what addiction does to a person. Such a person can even sell his house to gamble and won't think twice.

 

[Trush Jodie]

I have seen addicted gamblers spend the money they had saved for months for something important spend it all in minutes in a gambling house.

That's some humans for you. They do the unthinkable and don't even fear God about it. It is what it is for them

Welcome to the world of gambling addiction. A gambler an sell his house just to stake a game. I am not even surprised at all.

 

[Springtime]

That is what an addicted gambler will do. Addiction to gambling causes a lot of harm including losing your job or even go bankrupt.

Gambling addiction is a serious problem. A lot of families have been ruined because of gambling. Any sensible person will always avoid getting involved with gambling.

Some people are soboteurs and enemy of progress for others. So they don't mind doing that to themselves and others

 

[Nomad]

For some people gambling can become an addiction and they can do anything for gambling. They continue to gamble even when they lose money

 

[eLdavis]

To be able to do such, that person is already addicted to gambling, i have heard about similar cases like this before.

 

[Augusta]

it's that bad. Gamblers need to distract selves with other activities.Postpone gambling. Giving self time may allow the urge to pass or weaken

That employee does not deserve a second chance to get back to his work. He can not be trusted. He stole the money intended for office supplies just to satisfy his gambling addiction. He is insanely insensitive.

 

[Augusta]

Some people don't have common sense. That's why they do very weird things. How can one gamble with such money

 

[Starmix]

That man was insane, didn't feel afraid to gamble the money he didn't own. He will surely be kicked out without a trace. His family may disown him.

 

[Augusta]

Some gamble to escape problems or relieve feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety or depression

 

[freelancermaria]

Many people turn to gambling, believing it's an easy way to make a lot of money. While you might win at first, know that this won't always be the case.

You can make a living from some casino games, for example poker is possible because it has a controllable factor but typical casino games are very complicated and difficult, it requires a lot of discipline and excellent risk management, returning to the subject, only an idiot can spend money on office supplies on games of chance, he must have thought that "luck" will be on his side and he will win money lol what a stupid way to give away money

 

[Augusta]

Some people are just nuisance so they do a lot of things they are not supposed to do like this one

 

[Fire&Rain]

Its an addiction. Gambling addiction destroys everything you have. Thats why you see gambling addicts ending up living on the streets because they end up losing everything to gambling. When he gambled with office money, he truly thought he would double of triple it.

 

[Fidelia]

The person spending money for office supplies on gambling has thrown his job on the line just to gamble. That's quite very interesting how far one can go to fuel an addiction.
