God.....I felt [and still feel, sometimes] like a total dumbass for this...No seriously, I do. There's very few things in my life that I actually regret, this is one of them - probably because I haven't really accepted the fact that I did it and been able to extract a lesson from it.
[takes deep breath]
but, yeah.....I accepted $80 of counterfeit 20-dollar bills @ work in december 2003.
[btw, I worked @ a national movie theater as a cashier, selling the tickets; as well as a jack of all trades - everything except sell food and run the projectors; and I still currently work there now.]
Minutes after the transaction, I looked @ the bills again, and then noticed....black marker test - failed....
After it happened, I was like....how ?!? is this the same kid who just got done reading 'the art of the steal' by frank abengale ?!? a person who is usually very observant ?!
In fact, an hour later after it happened, the lady [she bought a gift card with counterfeit $] CAME BACK AGAIN !
I wanted to escape the glass booth in front of me and just beat the shit out of her....She looked @ me - I looked @ her, and she understood that I caught on to her and promptly left...
I really wanted to 'entrap' her [so to speak] and catch her red-handed with the fake money, but I couldn't really formulate a plan that quick [I'd have to get my manager down there and at least apprehend her or something...]
thanks for sharing your stories and listening to mine.
*sighs*
will.
