It is called Forgery. You are not supposed cash checks that belong to someone else. The affected party (The person whose check you cashed) can sue you legally and you can be jailed for committing this forgery.

In short, you'll end up behind bars if you happen to do this.

What if you get a theft charge after being hired and already bonded?

What if.....? Sounds like you might want to start looking for another job that doesn't involve being bonded. Once your current employer finds out that you have a theft charge while employed and bonded by them (even if the theft didn't occur on the job), chances are you're done.
