Pretty pathetic? Any one with similar antics?

What the poor ba$tard he borrowed the ruler from. :Q

The ruler is for the frontdesk, where I sit, but no one uses it.

I once ate 2 tablespoons of fresh wasabi for $1 Cha-ching? :cool:

a guy i work with waited at a car wash for the vaccums to be emptied. He then dug through all the dirt and crap that people had sucked out of their cars and found around 20 dollars in change.

I doctored a report card once for $20. Probably the worst thing I've done, but it wasn't that bad. I mean the poor guy's dad was going to kill him if he found out.

To be fair, when you spend your days vacuuming cars you get pretty grimy anyway. It's not like a good scrubbing won't make you un-grimy.

By the by, it's "Vacuum", not "Vaccum". Just imagine it "Vah-cooooom" and you'll spell it right.

not to mention that the guy digging in a company toilet for ten cents is talking about a guy going through vacuum bins and getting close to $20.

Amazing. I could just be Bizarro Atomicus. I'll throw change away because my jingley pockets annoy me.
