So 10mm-man totally got me on his AR giveaway. I guess I am a sucker for stuff like this.
So when I was younger I was a night manager/Zamboni driver for the ice rink at Chapel Hills Mall. One of my jobs was to cash out the registers, log the $$ for the day and put it in the safe before closing for the night. One of my coworkers was my best friend and did the same job I did.
I worked late that night, closed at 11 or midnight then I was supposed to be back in at 0600 for the Sunday shift. I come in on time and the program manager, day manager and my friend were in the office when I went to open up. I thought it was a bit strange. Once in the office I noticed a load of paperwork laid out and the safe was open. Shortly after I got there the mall security weenies showed up.
The PM took me aside and told me they came in and the safe was open and they were missing the $$ from the previous day. I completely freaked! They played it so well. They told me to go do my work, stay on the radio and they'd get back to me. They call me 30 minutes later and I go back in the office and there's a COS Police Officer in the office now. He didn't say a word, just looked at me. He was a neighbor of my friend and had just gotten off shift but played along.
They confirmed they were missing the money and that they needed to take statements etc. I started talking about conspiracies, thinking who would try to set me up and it never occurred it was a joke. I was rambling, saying over and over I didn't do it, someone is screwing me..... They printed some fake corporate letterhead and got me to start filling it out like it was a police statement. I thought for sure I was going to jail. This was after about an hour or so of letting me stew so it was set in my brain I was being framed. I barely get started and the PM told me to make sure I put the date in correctly. I looked at her and told her I knew what day it was but didn't catch on. I was so pissed. Then my buddy comes out with a highlighter and highlights the date, I asked him WTF. He pointed at the date and laughed just a bit.
I got up and walked out, didn't talk to any of them for half the day. We still laugh about that day.
