| Fake Dentist Caught Selling Fake Dentures - 1/16/2012 9:35 AM |
A man in England decided he wouldn't let expired qualifications stop him frommaking homeade denturesand selling them to poor, unsuspecting toothless victims. Many of this fake dentit's patients soon found themselves with their poorly made teeth falling out or becoming chipped. I sure hope my wife doesn't read this story since she just got some work done on her teeth a couple days ago. Of course, I probably won't be able to resist steering her toward the article since it's too good an opportunity to pass up. File that undertooth fairy's revenge? |
| Man Writes Fake Obit to Get Out of Work - 12/13/2011 10:58 AM |
What would you do to get paid time off from work? If publishing an obituary for your living mother was what you were thinking, then you and 45-year-old Scott Bennett havesomething in common. That's right, apparently getting paid bereavement time off from work was so important to Bennett that he wrote up a fake obituary for his no-so-dead mother. Unfortunately for Bennett, relatives saw the obituary in the paper and reported the falsehood. Bennett has since been charged with disorderly conduct. File that underteaching momma to play dead. |
| Header Hunter Fired Over Mean Email Reply - 12/12/2011 8:59 AM |
Apparentlysending an email replyfull of expletives to over 4,000 people is just as bad for six figure recruitment executives as it is for the rest of us. Gary Chaplin, the executive in question, lost his job after sending an email saying that the person who made the initial email was"too stupid to get a job" along with some expletives for extra flavor. I'm not too fond of headhunters (or the whole recruitment profession in general to be honest) so a story like this actually warms my heart a bit. Of course, the person called out for being too stupid to get a job probably isn't having those same warm fuzzy feelings. And while I may not sympathize with headhunters, I must say I've had plenty of times where I wish I could just tell a potential employee (or even current employees) that they were too stupid to be working. File that underheadhunter seeking headhunters. |
