The manager's personal charity...

My previous company took donations in the name of a Veterans organization and then priced the items and sold them in a thrift store. Most people thought that the company was ran by the Veterans. NOT. The company was a privately owned company and the profits for the owners were in excess of $100,000 a month. The Veterans were paid only 3% of the net. No joke! Anyway-We had a Manager who was stealing from the company and most people knew it but we couldn't prove it. One day the lady that made the deposits was out sick so this Manager made up the deposit and asked me to take it to the bank. I went in to the bank and handed the teller the deposit. About 10 minutes later a Security Guard tells me that I need to see the Branch Manager.I am terrifed that something has happened and that the deposit was short. The Branch Manager looks at me and tells me that the deposit is $19,000 OVER and asks me if I wanted them to add the money to the deposit or if I just wanted to take it back to
the store. Well-I am dumbfounded and I don't know what to say. I told them that I guess she had just made some kind of mistake and that I would take the money back to the store. When I leave the bank I am shaking and VERY upset. I mean I could see a little mistake but a $19,000 mistake? No way. It was obvious to me that she had "set the money aside" for herself and that she forgot and put it in the bag. When I got back to the store I asked her to come to the office with me. She told me that she had sent me on a simple errand that had taken over an hour and that she did not have time to talk to me she had work to do. Then she wanted to know what in the he** I was doing for an hour and told me that she was going to dock my pay for at least 30 minutes of the time "and maybe more". Well- that was the wrong thing to say. I told her that I had spent the last hour trying to cover for her lying, stealing a** and that the next time she decided to "take her cut" it had better not be
when she was sending me to the bank. Then I took the rubber bands off of the money and threw the entire $19,000 at her head. Well- she fired me on the spot for "insubordination" and "wasting company time". But-I had the last laugh because I told my story to the Owner and the Veteran's Association. The Owner fired her and the Veteran's Association did an Audit and realized that she had been "cooking the books" for years and that the company owed them $188,000 in unpaid revenue. Sweet Victory!!!
