For a while my network switches were pilfered from the tech recycle bin at work. And oh so many laptop power cables (the Surface ones) so now I have one at every seat in my house.

Not so much stolen, but I was... unofficially gifted...a high performance SSD that had been sitting unused at the office for a few years. No one claimed it so I was told to take it.

And then the usual stack of notebooks, reams of paper, pens, and pencils from the office supply.

My home first aid kit is pretty well stocked too, totally unrelated to the individually packaged piles of pills at work of course.
