I got reminded today of an incidence that occured just under 7 years ago. While a group of my friends and I sat down in a friend's house (living with his mom) "Joe."
We told him we'd each give him a dollar if he burned his work schedule with his lighter, with the intention that'd he'd miss work. The bet was on and the schedule went up in smoke.
Joe may have gotten richer by $3, but as planned and because of his indolence, Joe was already riding the line with call-ins and as a result of missing work he got fired.
It's excusable at the tender age of 20, I guess. But what a sad event.
What a way to have friends that look out for ya, huh?
