Alex is an OACETT C.E.T. He works at an IT company that completes unique software programming for industrial and medical tools and equipment. There was sample hardware in the office that Alex did not think the company needed. He took the hardware home to see if he could adapt it for a project he was working on for his own interest. He did not intend to make money off of the project; he simply wanted to see if an idea he had was feasible. The next week the company owner asked all employees about the whereabouts of the sample hardware. The company owner indicated that the hardware needed to be returned to the manufacturer and that the company would get charged for it if it was not returned.
