Had a similiar event happen to me when I worked at a car wash/gas staion. He had beautiful '87 grand prix, didn't follow my instructions and put his car over the track that was supposed to catch his wheel and pull him through the car wash, istead he drove over it and into the water trough in the middle. ******* tried blaming me,called the police and a tow truck and told me I HAD to pay for it & the repairs to his car!
When my manager came in(I called), he told the guy, in no uncertain terms to f^%k himself! What nobody knew was they had installed 3 camera's at the place because there had been 3 break-in's since I started and they thought I had something to do w/ it! Turns out it was Ms. Employee of the Months boyfriend, anyway bitchgot fired. The mgr pulled up the tape w/ the cop right there and we all watched the tapes and it CLEARLY showed HE screwed the pooch in the exact way I said it happened. Then HE was told about repair bills,lying to the police, false info on a police report, and making threats(said he'd kick my ass if I didn't pay for the tow). Thank god for those camera's. Too bad it's not gonna help that bozo!
