Trial of an ex-Metro employee

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-06-01...

Bad luck for Metro and the CFA! Glad they finally caught this guy.

Metro has around 3500 employees and in that number there are sure to be a few bad eggs that make you look suspiciously at the rest of the carton. Most of my workmates are lovely highly decent people.

HOWEVER …

My first week at my first station a man rang and asked for X. I’d never heard of X so I asked my station master who took the call. After he hung up he told me that X was no longer working for us. He was in jail having held up 8 service stations!

“Startling” news when you are just fresh out of working in libraries, where assigning the wrong Dewey number is the worst offence you get from other staff.

But I stand by my assertion that my workmates are mostly lovely decent people. 2 in 13 years among 3500 is pretty good odds.
