Things that make you laugh

[Lightning McQueen]

Purchased a cheap shitty bike from Crime Converters the other day

Had flat tyres so went to inflate them

Some ******* idiot put a garden hose as a tube


I couldn't help but laugh

A friend was living alone, happy in her single life but needing some financial assistance by way of a flat mate. A friend of a friend had a bloke in need and before too long the pair were sharing a unit.

In the third bedroom / study the lady had her bike, ironing board, junk room sort of set up as there was no shed to store the type of gear you would normally do so. Anywho, the room became an extended space for them both as he was quite artistic and an accomplished painter / drawer. As time went by he had more and more in that space until one day he disappeared, so did his clothes, belongings, all gone in the space of 8 hours while she was at work. He left a note saying he was moving back to country NSW to family.

Over the course of a few weeks she found odd items missing, an electric frying pan, a small pedestal fan and in looking around moved her "bike" to check what else was gone. Well, the "bike" stored under a couple of old towels and blankets was a cobbled together cardboard cut out of a bike placed there to mask the missing bike he'd no doubt pinched.

Must have been recycled.

I have a meeting every day in my office with the afternoon shift manager and supervisor, yesterday I had my boss pop in for a guest appearance.

I asked him if there was something wrong with the emails as I hadn't had any since 8:30am, one bloke asked if I had changed the password recently on my computer to which I had earlier in the day.

I logged out of my email and back in and then they just looked and laughed at the 100+ emails come flooding through, it was about then when they all got up and wished me luck at getting home before dark.

Just turn your emails off it’s much easier

I’ve got a staff member who emails me then proceeds to text message me to tell me he emailed me.
I generally ignore both for 24 hours

I get one fella that comes barging in my office and asks "did you see my email?" as he's explaining it all and expecting me to stop what I'm doing to check the email. I look and see that he sent it one minute ago.

We have e-mail, sametime (internal company chat) & zoom. I have one bloke who insists on using all 3 methods to send the same message within minutes of each other!

A NSW man has been caught using a bizarre technique to steal hundreds of dollars worth of groceries.

Wollongong man Adrian Rondan used Caramello Koala and gum barcodes in a bid to steal groceries from his local Coles.

He was caught stealing on CCTV and has pleaded guilty at Wollongong Court to five counts of dishonestly obtaining property by deception.

The 54-year-old was sentenced to nine months in prison and will serve it through an intensive corrections order at home.

Rondan would use Blu Tack to stick the barcodes to his finger and scan them in place of other — often more expensive — items he walked out of the supermarket with.

A Current Affair reported Rondan had walked away with ice-cream, mussels, steaks, and bug sprays, however his receipt only listed the gum packets and chocolates.

One shopping trip Adrian scored bread, boxes of Golden Gaytime, chicken drumsticks, steak, coconut water and a hair clipper with a total value of $143.10.

However he only paid $11.20.

The 54-year-old has since admitted he was doing something wrong, but said his mother has expensive medical bills and led him to do something desperate and shoplift.


“We were very short of money … I know I did wrong,” Adrian told A Current Affair.

“I didn’t want to shoplift. … I didn’t want to brazenly take things and put them in my pocket.”

Finder finance expert Taylor Blackburn revealed about seven per cent of Australians have admitted to stealing from supermarkets, which is almost double compared to last year’s figures.

Atleast he paid something, coles at christies is like a self service, people waltz in and waltz out with all sorts of goodies

[dedja]

An ethical thief, a rarity.

When self serve checkouts first arrived I remember a story of a woman doing the same thing, using a 99c barcode for premium cuts of steak etc. And loaded up her trolley every week.
