Good morning all. Thought I'd share a little story about where I work...
Turns out we have a thief amongst us. About 3 weeks back, I turned up at work to find a bunch of coppers cruising around the smashed front door of the shop where I work , being all CSI and stuff, taking photos, dusting for fingerprints, etc. During the night, someone had busted in and stolen the WHOLE safe! Anyway, we all got interviewed by detectives etc, but no-one was caught, and the company decided to wear it on the chin rather than go through insurance.
Anyway, last Saturday, during the day while 5 of us were working, the NEW safe was emptied. So now it looks like both cases were inside jobs. This time the company is taking it VERY seriously - all of us who worked that day are now under a cloud of suspicion, as well as our partners - we've been getting drilled by detectives etc etc, and the worst thing, all the staff are now looking at each other sideways. Totally destroyed morale, which till then had been really good. On top of that, the manager (at a staff meeting last night) informed us that another store in the chain had suffered continual 'inside' robberies, and they couldn't find the culprit, so they sacked EVERYONE who worked there, manager included, and started again.
I have ALWAYS hated thieves, and although I hope that Karma is real and will catch up with him (or her), their selfishness could very easily cost over a dozen jobs. Filthy hey?
So if you want to whinge about thieves, knock yourselves out - I'll join in too!
Cheers,
Nic
