This is a question Greed

Buzzkillington says: "I once worked for Pizza Hut... Whats the the worst thing you've ever done for money?" And while we're here, tell us about greedy people you know. Money or pie, it doesn't matter.

Ugh...explanations.
Long story.

Hired by 'nice' brother as a sales rep at his PC company. I arrived unproven having come from a retail computing firm. He gave me a job and a chance. I proved his guess that I was a good rep and capable of more. He gave me a bigger chance and we developed another brand which was sold to the cunty brother. I was given the option of staying with 'nice' or going with cunty, to increase from $25K plus commission to $28K plus plus plus. I took the extra.

Sales Director? In name only until later years. It was front because of the nature of the business.

Being a Chinese controlled business, economy (i.e. excruciating cheapness) was the order of the day.

The machinery we purchased was more than 'cunty' could deal with. I already had a tech background. We sodded off to [a place in EU] in '95 to buy it. The man was a complete danger around anything electrical. Three phase stepper motor? Why not plug it back in while it's live? (Berger Lahr, if you must know.)

Believe or not, it's 100% fact.


The part that was omitted, is the bad bit.


She was interested to leave him. I wasn't interested in a long term relationship as I felt my marriage could be salvaged (stupid, stupid young man I was!). She reported to me that she was pregnant and I explained "not impressed" or similar. About a fortnight or so later, she didn't come to the building for a while. Cunty pointed out to me that she had miscarried and would be away for a while more. Ouch.

When she returned, a couple of months later, there was animosity in the air. We talked about things and calmed the situation down. However, as anyone who has been involved with someone, there is a pretty darned good chance that if the opportunity presents itself and there is still something to it that, well, something will happen. We took the time to let things happen for a good many years afterwards until Cunty's gambling eventually levelled the firm.



Speaking of poor, "this particuarly poor peice of fantasy", please consider learning to spell and punctuate a little better.


Cheers!!

I take no view on the truth or otherwise of the story
I accept that it is perfectly likely that some people who post on QOTW will also have led interesting and varied sex lives. Many won't have done. But some will.

I would say though, that if you need to go to this length to explain yourself (and for me actually, it really is a case of tl;dr) you probably got something quite wrong up front.

Okay, fair enough
Sounds slightly more plausable with the added detail, but frankly if you're going to post about your sex life on QOTW then you should probably make sure that it's funny or well written. This just wasn't. Frankly it read like a pretty crap wank-fantasy. Where you expecting people to be impressed that you screwed your bosses wife? If the story is bullshit, then it's kinda pathetic, and if it's true then frankly it has very little to do with greed so.... just comes across as you boasting about the amount of sex you've had.
