i collected all the scrap steel on site, i have to clear it away as i'm the site labourer its a health hazzard. theres about 4 tons of it. its custom for the labour and foreman if he wants a cut to share the scrap money. i found out today the money from the last steel batch the foreman took it for himself. i'm the one that shifted it with a wheel barrow from a 2 acre site. i've been collecting all the scrap copper as well, but thats well hidden. i was going to share the copper money with the foreman and the telescopic fork driver. but if they're gonna screw me when im the one doing all the work then bollocks to them. the trades appreciate me as a grafter and give me all their unwanted scrap copper. as i'm the only person to do any rubbish clearing i have all the copper hidden in a large carboard box sitting on the floor of the warehouse were building. i left rubbish sitting on top. but somebody tore a hole in the box for a nosey theres about 30kg. is it fair game for others?

Some people will steal anything. It's just asking for trouble to leave it there. If it's not stolen, then the foreman will find it!

how much is the copper worth? and how much trouble would you get into if it were found by your foreman that you sold it without his knowing.i know that 2 wrongs dont make a right but is it worth the worry?

yeah its fair game my advice is get it to the scrap merchant before some other bollocks does.

rubbish is always fair game. Better not leave it long or someone will steal it.
