Karma have you witnessed it yourself? do tell more

Here another one, same work place same guy.
I was serving a customer and a guy gets out of a taxi outside the shop,He walks in and approaches me and interrupts me and my customer. He asks " what's your bosses name?"
I replied " XXX"
So off he run to the boss and is talking to him, what was going on was this guy had broken down in his car and needed a new battery, he wanted to borrow $50 as he was short of money. and had to go to the back and there wasn't his brand around here. Blah Blah
The boss says no take $100, and slips the right hand in his cordouroys and pulls out a bill. The guy apparently let him his watch for the boss as security.
So the boss was smiling thinking of his good deed.
Any way later after my customer left he said to me the guy that came in, he was a nice friendly guy, do I know him.
I said I've never seen him before. I told him all I know was He came in and asked what buyer name was and all I said your name was XXX.
Anyway his wife was an oxygen bandit who would come into to "work", work to her was to make his lunch and go shopping during company time and spend all day socialising on the phone.
Madam XXX's examines the watch the guy left and concludes it's one of those Bali specials. The guy never came back
Now why did it all become MY FAULT.?????

And one other example.Same work place same owner
A burglar breaks into the store, during the night, the alarm company rings boss at home , he says there were some birds in the warehouse so don't worry, these birds where all over the sectors!.

New day, WE BEEN ROBBED!,
DAH DO YOU THINK SO!
Taken was undisclosed amount of petty cash (that grew in size on insurance claim.)
A mobile phone, this was when onetel were about they use to have a onetel to onetel no cost call, all that was needed was the sim card.
It was a great Rort, we could use it to call or onsite estimator for nothing and he could call in jobs etc. It was like a 2 way radio system and free.

Anyway, later that day the estimator decides to ring the mobile number and the burglar answers the phone. The esitmator says ,look we are not worried about the petty cash back, we just want the mobile phone back.
The burglar says well I'll give it back to you, but I want compensation of $200 as he cut himself climbing through the broken window.:p

Ok The cops come later that day to look at break and entry for the report and the phone call is mentioned blah blah.
The cops said this burglar must be stupid , would our estimator like to call and see if he answers . Well he did and the cops wanted to set up a sting.
Well our estimator wasn't to keen to put himself in danger ,but the cops assured him he is safe and before the Burglar could raise a finger they would pounce on him, reluntantly the sting was organised, location Sth Melb Market.
The day of the sting, our estimator who drove a ute was loaded up with a load of flooring Vinyl, was going to deliver it to a contruction site near by .
Parked in a side street and then went to the rendezvous spot.
The burglar a small Asian guy, who our guy thought was a kid arrives on a bicylce. They meet and the burglar pulls out a steel pipe in view so our bloke could see it.
Still no cops pounding:eek:
Young burglar wants $200 for the phone, our chap hands over cash and gets phone back. Still no cops pounding :eek:
Burglar than asks our bloke if we will come with him to the local pub and have a drink with him, to spend the $200:eek:
Finally 6 cops pound onto the burglar and smother him to the ground.:DHe is taken down.

So his scary part of the job done, our estimator returns to the spot he had parked his load ute and finds that some one had unloaded his ute for him:mad::mad::mad::mad: So with all these police nearby he was robbed!in broad daylight.

Many years ago I was carefully driving up a notoriously corrugated back road between One Tree Hill and Golden Grove (older locals will remember it well) and an idiot in a Torana was hanging inches off my back bumper so I let him pass as soon as I could. He roared off in a blinding cloud of dust and so failed to notice in time the right angle bend into Snake Gully Rd. As we rolled up to the corner we saw he had slid out sideways, mounted the gravel bank and wrapped it somewhat around a big gum tree. My wife rolled down her window, he was frantically trying to reverse off the mound. "Are you OK?" she asked.
Reply: "This isn't my car, I borrowed it off my brother!"
Wife wound up her window and we drove quietly onwards, thinking, this kid's gonna be told some home truths when he gets back home.

When I was a teenager, my karate teacher used to let me work off my fees by helping him with his lawn and garden business. He was a popular guy, business doing well, pretty wife, and his next door neighbour hated him with a passion for some reason I could never figure out. This guy would screech abuse at my teacher, his wife or any one else when ever we went out into the yard. If I started to rise to it Rick would tell me to settle down. He eventually told me his outlook was that all the neighbour was doing was making his own life miserable, he didn't have to join him. He ended with " let him have a heart attack from stress, I don't need need to".
Guess what happened one hot day while he was going berserk because I was mowing the lawn?

When I was in Year 9 my parents sold one farm and moved to another about 120Km away. Since I was moving schools I had to have an exit interview with the Principal who proceeded to tell me that my academic record was poor, I would not amount to anything and that he was glad to be rid of me from his school.
Fast forward 7 years and I am a qualified Electronics Tech working for a company that repaired copiers and other equipment in schools. After listening to his impassioned plea about how he couldnt survive without a photocopier for more than a week and how he needed me to fix the machine quickly for some reason the parts were particularly difficult to source......
He had no idea who I was but I certainly remembered him :D

I'm glad you rose above that , mate, that man was not a teacher, he was a public servant. [ apologies to the public servants out there, but I hope you know what I mean.] Bob
