Stupid Criminals

When two guys in cowboy garb offered the sheriff’s deputies doughnuts, and then the deputies investigated a burglary involving doughnuts and the prints of cowboy boots, it didn’t take Sherlock Holmes to crack the case.

“The officers kind of put two and two together,” Deputy District Attorney Dave Hopkins said Tuesday at the sentencing of Adam Hancock, 21, of Baker City on theft and burglary charges.

Stupid Boss

I swear that this is a true story. I am a professor of accounting at a midwestern college. About one-third of the students in one of my courses were cheating on exams. When I took steps to stop the cheating, they complained to the dean. The dean told me that, because I was preventing the students from cheating, I was, therefore, setting them up for failure.

Stupid Bosses

My boss works maybe 25 hours a week. We work in a department of 3 people. The boss, myself, and one other person, so if one of us is gone, it can be a big burden on the other two to cover the workload.Nonetheless, my boss has no problem working 25 hours a week or less.She takes an hour and a half to two hour lunches to go work out at the gym almost every day. She comes in about a half hour late most days, and leaves a half hour early most days to avoid traffic. She takes off at 11 a.m. or noon many Mondays and often leaves 2 or 3 p.m. on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.The worst part is she lies on her timesheet and reports that she’s here all of this time that she’s skipping out. As a result, she has 15 vacation days to use, while I, as a result of being honest on my timesheet and actually reporting the hours when I am not here, have only 3. I’m sick of doing her work and covering for her lazy ass. I’m also sick of hearing her complain about how she is overburdened and not paid enough. She’s a warped, twisted, dishonest woman and I’m so sick of having to work harder as a result of her laziness.
