But that is a far cry from walking off with a laptop, or a TV. Wasn't it reported that Amazon was actually pretty horrified, when they discovered the sheer extent of the theft? I mean, reliably reported*, in court documents? It wasn't petty pilfering (the occasional office supplies) but fairly massive? Or am I imagining this?

You are indeed imagining this. It has long since been established that Amazon is run by sadists who enjoy, at their own expense*, seeing their employees standing pointlessly in line for lengthy periods of time.
