Yeah, I agree that it is a sickness. I mean, I used to get a rush from it at first...but after time, it became like work. It was like second nature and I became quite cavalier about it. However, I always was cautious and didn't get too cocky or greedy and I think that is why I did it for so long without be detected. In terms of my above scheme, I had a certain amount of cash that I had to physically transfer to the casino vault. I managed to find the one blind spot in the casino(no cameras, less than 10 ft of corridor). Most wouldn't select that as a transfer point because there was a lot of people in the area. But once you worked out the busy times/slow times as well as angling your body in such a way to make the transfer possible, it was done in a matter of 2-3 seconds. So, within that short timeframe, it was easier to reduce detection. Either way, taking things just isn't for me anymore...no rush from it and no need. Glad those days are over..........

From a bank: a whack of travellers checks (that was a fun caper)

from a medical center: a human head (had to bury it ion the desert)

from a hagwon: a greasy little boy (good clean fun!)

from Subway: meatball sandwiches (mmmmmm....)

from a construction site: a back hoe with front loader (I said ho...)




The art of gleeping is a handy skill indeed.
BTW, just joshing on two of those....

While working for a grocery store in high school - a horrible job - I used to try to give customers free things, usually by just not scanning things at the register. I'd take a jar of mayo, for example, run it across the scanner without really scanning it, and then bag it. Quite often, though, the customer would point out my mistake.

"Listen," I'd think. "I'm trying to help you out here. Just shut up."

Since that is the case, why should anybody take anything you say on these forums seriously ever again?

Nothing on purpose, but I have a bad habit of sticking white board markers in my pocket and forgetting about them until I get home. Once discovered, I always toss them in my backpack to return, but rarely remember them once I get to school. As a result, I generally have a half dozen markers floating around the bottom of my backpack at any given time. Embarassed

I've stolen a few minutes lost in my thoughts, looking out the window.
