<p>A former co-worker called and asked for a favor. When he was with the company, he (ahem!) “borrowed” some old office equipment from storage. He now wants me to return it for him. What should I do? Put it back? Inform my boss? </p>

Since you appear to still be employed there, I would encourage your friend to be responsible.</p>
