Must have been quite the interview if the boss can’t even remember his name. Not that it probably would have mattered since this guy would have been an idiot to give any real information.

Also, the guy is an idiot if he tries to cash any of those lotto tickets. Those can definitely be tracked. I have a feeling that he’ll be caught pretty quickly.

I get the feeling he’ll just sell those on to someone else.

at least he was smart enough to pilfer his personnel docs. Moriarty to Detective Fife.

So you’re saying it’s an inside job, eh?

A thoughtful one, though. He didn’t stay long enough so that he formed close bonds, so the betrayal was not as hurtful.

It’s a good thing no other job that requires trust is targeted by people always intending to exploit it.

I figure he’ll just cut off his impressive beard and use it as a wig. Then no one will recognize him.

Yeah you can actually fence those.
