I have no idea if this is TRUE... but it makes a great story.

BEST LAWYER/INSURANCE STORY OF THE YEAR


This took place in Charlotte North Carolina A lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars, then insured them against, among other things, fire.

Within a month, having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company.

In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost 'in a series of small fires' ...


The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason, that the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion.

The lawyer sued and WON!

Delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company that the claim was frivolous. The judge stated nevertheless,

that the lawyer held a policy from the company, in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would

insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable 'fire' and was obligated to pay the claim.

Rather than endure lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000 to the lawyer for his loss of the cigars that perished in the 'fires'.

NOW FOR THE BEST PART...

After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of ARSON!!!

With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and was sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000 fine.


This true story won
First Place
in last year's Criminal Lawyers Award contest.
 
i HATE it when people tell me to smile, ask me questions that are NONE of their business to "why are you mad?", "what's wrong?" and etc for them to go like "you need to smile" or basically insult me in the process and disregarding their damn feelings or why they feel that way. like you're basically pretending to care so you can insult me. MIND YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS. as long as my anger isn't coming towards you where i'm taking it out on you or about to beat your ass or something like that, keep it moving and pay me no mind. let me be angry, depressed or whatever emotion that i'm feeling in peace.
 
I'm at the McDonald's over by my foot doctor's waiting for the bus so I can go home. It just went 2pm here now, but good god, you'd think it was Babylon, the gay bar from Queer As Folk. This place is littered with hot guys right now. :)
 
Right now, I do NOT like religious people. Take that back, I don't like religious CRAZY people. It honestly breaks my heart to see what Kirk and Candace Cameron turned into. That DJ Tanner and Mike Seaver now think that it's perfectly acceptable in this year, 2013, to not only be against gay marriage, but to take it one step further into full blown anti-LGBT prejudice saying that LGBT people are Satan, they're the devil, they must go to church and be converted to be heterosexual and on and on and on. And what really bothers me more, is the fact that these religious nuts are so blind to the reason why teen suicides among the LGBT community are spiking. When you are told every day by responsible looking adults that "you're the problem in America, you're the Devil, you're a communist." And they're making these kids so fucking miserable that they're killing themselves. I'm surprised that there hasn't been more wrongful death lawsuits against these religious groups by the parents of these kids.

Interestingly enough, I'd probably be one of those people that would tell you "you should smile more" (instead of saying 'you need to smile more'), and try to cheer you up...but only if I were a friend or a co-worker (as opposed to seeing you walking down the street of course).

It would NOT be meant to insult you at all?!:confused: If all you want to do is to beat my ass...well, that's a different story.

I'd hand him a box, and tell him to get over himself. ;)

:lol: i apologize if i offend you or anybody in here. it's that sometimes, like earlier, when i'm in a bad mood or feel really shitty where i'm tired, body is hurting the daylights out of me, am in pain or feeling really horrible, i wanna be left alone or not feeling too fine where i easily get annoyed and irritated. it's NOT like anything could be done about the pain or the last thing i'm worrying about is actually smiling or trying to keep my mind off of it when i can't escape it. so when someone is like "what's wrong?" i tell them and then they're like "you're in pain. you didn't do anything. you didn't work or do anything that makes you hurt. smile or cheer up. you should be dancing around and etc." i get upset like "damn, this person is basically disregarding how i feel or isn't understanding what the hell i'm experiencing." it's hard to smile and act like everything is alright when your whole entire body hurts, you feel like crying, are depressed, or whatever. it's not something that is completely have control of. i appreciate the concern but sometimes, the pain is too overwhelming where it just makes me act like a total bitch when i don't mean to.

I'd hand him a box, and tell him to get over himself. ;)

yeah, those will work. :lol: i'm on my period. tried to sleep it off right now with a quick catnap and woke up with two dead arms and being unable to move. gonna jerk off real quick though.
 
Far from offended here... I was just acknowledging your princess moment, and giving you a pat on the head and a cookie and letting you vent, while letting you know we see your tantrum. ;)

Btw- that would be a great name for a grunge band: "Two Dead Arms Jerk Off". LOL

LMAO.

that would be a nice name for a band though or a song maybe. :-<:-<


goddamn... WTF is up with my mouse. :cry: ended up posting this shit 8 times by accident. this mouse is acting like a bitch right now.
 
During this post in what I'm about to say, I will attempt to do as best a job as I can to divorce my exceptionally volatile emotions from the actual events, so as to just stick to the facts.

So I kinda screwed up, just now. I'm human. It happens.

So I walked out and walked off the job at Walmart Neighborhood Market within the last few hours. I'm back home, now.

So, I come in, a half hour early off the bus, like I always do, since the bus only runs once an hour during the evenings at my store.

I went to the breakroom, and sat down, heated up my dinner and made a fresh pot of coffee. The overnight hourly manager comes in, and just passes along a message from the daytime salaried assistant, to make sure to get the registers clean, because they weren't last night. And I'm like, "OK, you know the absolute train wreck I was left to deal with last night, right?" and he's like yeah. Tuesday night was an absolute catastrophe.

The morning shift front-end supervisor for Wednesday morning had called in the night before, so the Tuesday night supervisor that was scheduled to get off at 11pm actually turned back around and covered the Wednesday morning shift. But in doing so, he left - without permission to do so - at 10pm, an hour early. Almost the entire front-end, every register still had money that needed to be changed out, which was supposed to be done on the evening shift before he left. No returned merchandise had been ran back, so there where 3 shopping carts heaping full and falling over that were left for me alone to deal with, along with the damaged merchandise behind customer service that had to be ran back to the backroom claims area.

And the one cash register the Tuesday evening supervisor did shut down, he actually wasn't supposed to. He shut down the Customer Service Desk. True enough, Service Desk closes at 9pm for pretty much most everything (returns, refunds, Money Gram, money orders, etc.). But since it's also the only register in the whole building that is authorized to ring up cigarettes and tobacco, since it's a restricted employees-only area, that register is supposed to be open 24-hours, so that at night, we can sell tobacco. It's not supposed to be shut down and have the money changed out until 11.50pm, and it's to be reopened immediately after the Midnight changeover in the store computer, so that we can continue cigarette purchases during graveyard hours, from Midnight onward. So he shuts that one register down early, before he leaves at 10pm - an over 2-hour span of being closed, when that register is not supposed to be. So to ring up customers who are still coming in during the 10 and 11 oclock hours, I literally have to get management to pull that register's money bag out of the cash office, and sort out all that just-thrown-together money, so that we can check cigarette customers out.

It was myself and the two evening cashiers that stayed until Midnight to help me with the rush, Tuesday night. After I get all the registers properly changed out and all of the four self-checkout machines changed out (just changing out those 4 machines is a 1-hour job alone), and after midnight hits, I also have a whole 5ft tall pallet of cube cases of bags for the cash registers that I have to issue out to all 10 registers at the front-end. I get all those issued out and one box cut open for easy access per register, and get through with all of this, this takes me until my lunch. I come back on-time the next hour and just try to deal with the 3 heaping full shopping carts of returns as best I can. There's so much stuff in each basket that I only get done with two of the carts before 7am. I'm literally having to walk all over the building countless times to put back as many items as I can, back in their proper department, in their rightful place on the shelf.

That was Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. And, I told him, "You know the absolute train wreck that Leonard left early and left me by myself to deal with, right?" And the manager's like, "I know. But still..." As in, no matter how hard I pushed myself, and no matter how I pulled my weight, plus the evening shift supervisor's too, it still wasn't enough, because everything was done. That was the message I was hit with, earlier tonight, before I clocked in. So the day already started out negative.

Fast forward to the 11pm hour - typically either feast or famine, sometimes a little bit of both, in terms of customer traffic. The evening shift supervisor for tonight/Wednesday night (a really cool lesbian girl) and the cashier left at 11pm. I was left up there by myself to handle it all. So I get a flash mob of customers. The proper thing to do is to call for back up. I did. The other cashier came up there and helped the first time. We got the lines down, then a quiet period, briefly. She, the other cashier, goes back to doing the cereal aisle. I get a second flash mob a few minutes later. I radio over the walkie again for help. She comes back up to my register and approaches me when I have a customer in progress, "Oh, Joseph, I'm not gonna keep coming up here and helping you with these customers. You've got to pick up the pace and speed it up a little bit, and quit slacking."

The customer immediately raised his eyebrows and was like wow! He told me, "There's a whole crowd of people that decided to checkout all at one time. It's not your fault that you got hit with all of this." I smiled and said, "I apologize for the unprofessionalism".

I checked the rest of my line down, and in doing so, the other cashier ran out of one dollar bills in her till. So her customer her customer taps me on my right shoulder. Remember the old rule, "When you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." Well, I ignored her customer tapping me on my shoulder. I ignored everything about her line, and just focused on my customer and making their change in my till. My temper inside my head was escalating rapidly. You're not going to dress me down and humiliate me in front of customers, and then ask me for help right behind it when you get in a bind. So yeah, I ignored both her and her customer. I was livid. Madea livid. My hands were shaking, I was trying to not explode in front of everybody, like she did to me.

Honestly, I was kinda like how refuji gets sometimes.

So I got the rest of my line down, and went and told the manager goodbye.

He's like, where are you going?

Home, I told him. Then I told her when she went up there to get change, "You're not going to dress me down, then ask for my help. You're not going to go off on me, then still expect me to be on your side." She attacks back, "You're just sorry! You're sorry. If I can handle crowds of people by myself, then you can too! You're just lazy."

"Ok, bye." If she thought she could handle it by herself, then there it is, handle it dear, handle it.

That's when I went and clocked out and walked out. I tried to physically divorce myself from the situation, before I made a mistake and let my anger get out of control, to where I would have hit someone and have possibly gotten arrested.

But because I just clocked out and walked out, it's basically viewed as abandoning the job. Honestly, I would agree. I should have just went to the back or to the breakroom and just cooled my heels, instead of just up and walking out.

But yes, I screwed up tonight. I was a bit of a coward, who ran from a fight instead of standing my ground. I don't know. I just don't. Tired, exhausted, frustrated, and drained.

Congrats! I've been in the same situation, said my mental "Fuck You's", clocked out and never looked back, and never regretted it!

... but you DID say you have that new job already lined up... right???
 
Yes. The drug test formality. After I get out of my foot doctor's for physical therapy, I'm going to pay a visit, and tell them that when the test comes back good, I'm ready when they are. (The store manager at Walgreens was going to allot me time to put in my notice. But that has obviously now changed.)
 
But I'm going to actually need to get started asap for a variety of reasons, the least of which - there's a dentist office opening soon in that same shopping center, in the main building where the Kroger's is at. One of their grand opening specials is free teeth whitening FOR LIFE with the purchase of cleaning and xrays. I so want to cash in on that!
 
Builders have to elaborately construct around it, often leaving behind an eyesore so awesome that it's almost a sculpture.

Yeah, cause the stuff that was built around that "eyesore" is just so much more appealing.

Interesting article though.
 
Well, good news about my new Walgreens job - I broke the news today to the assistant manager that Walmart "OKed me starting the new job at anytime." :lol:

The assistant said that because they're shorthanded right now, they might put me on the schedule sooner rather than later. Maybe a lot sooner!
