Yes Billy probably stepped over a line but man its a small line and the biggest thing he's guilty of is getting caught. If he hadn't and he paid whatever personal expenses were incurred back it would be nothing. Zip. It's petty, and so is all the blowing it out of proportions that has been going on in this and other threads about it. Manienie minded BS.
No, it isn't "petty". There was no way he was going to stop using the card for personal charges and he had no intention of ever paying it back - UNTIL HE GOT CAUGHT! It went on for nearly SIX YEARS! If he had the intention to pay it back, he would have done so much sooner, even if that meant small amounts being paid back over time.
When he finally did pay some of it back, he had someone else front the money to do so. That also shows that he personally, wasn't capable of paying it back.
