    Call me crazy, but I'd almost have done this back in the day. But screw making the same meager wage as the day job and probably getting taxed on it too. Put a couple of c-notes in an envelope, Dean.

    Could an employee be fired from the newspaper if he did park all the cars, tossed the keys and left? Or would he be fired as a valet?

    You actually can upper deck a car. Put shit in the windshield washer fluid reservoir.

    For good measure, nail the editor's teenage daughter in her parents' bed.

    Based on what I've heard about the Lehmans, this doesn't surprise me - at all.

    And lono, that suggestion was quick - almost like you've done it to someone before. I don't know whether to bow in admiration or run like hell.

    At my first job, I'll never forget the husband-wife ownership team calling a meeting specifically to rip us all to shreds for not shoveling the parking lot while they were gone for a funeral.

    That was just the tip of the iceberg. Needless to say, I quit after six weeks.

    Shoveling what? Their crap?

    Sounds like they took into the newsroom with them.

    That would be snow, but crap is just as good.

    I know, but anyone coming in and verbally burning a newsroom over that junk has more crap to deal with than any snow-filled parking lot in the Northwest Territories.

    And corn syrup - not sugar - in the gas tank.
