Worried to death that I'm going to lose my job. Did i do something bad?

Im a custodian at a school.

One day i asked my manager was there any stores I could get stripper from (that they use on floors). I planned on using it to remove a ring from inside my toilet seat.

My manager secretly told me to just put a bottle inside my coat because we have so much at the school.

Earlier tonight, I thought it'd be smarter if I just pour the stripper imside a can with a different label (since the school has hidden cameras).

So what i did was go in the custodial closet (which is mine) and grab a Clorox Disinfectant Wipes can. I took the rest of the wipes out, set them aside and pour stripper inside the can. I felt that if i would have thrown the wipes away, it would have hidden the evidence.

I took the Clorox can home.

My biggest worry is if management see those wipes sitting aside and see the can missing and accuse me of stealing which I did.

Im going to get another can tomorrow from the store and if asked about it, I could say i misplaced it and act like i found out somewhere.

Do you think they will say anything? Will my idea work? What should I do if they say anything?

    I hope that you get fired, fall behind on your bills, wind up destitute and homeless and are forced to use the free internet at the library so that you ask fewer dumb questions. But you'd probably end up better off not working because you'd probably be entitled to $1,000 from SSI.

    stealing is WRONG. u should replace the can of wipes whatever it is and a bottle of bleach. i mean how much does it cost? like nothing. why would anyone steal smth which can cause him a job when he can easily afford to buy it? so dumb

    Well if it is under an inventory sure. Also the person doing inventory if any could be a colleague you do not want to upset for loss of a good work environment for everyone. This is the common policy most small and commercial businesses produce. I discouraged it, and if caught, tell the truth.
