Yesterday, while getting some paperwork for the office manager, I discovered a Subpoena for a Grand Jury in MY NAME stashed and hidden away! The sucker was dated on my day off last week, and exactly when an employee called me up asking me to get some paperwork for her. This paperwork being signed receipts of a customer who apparently sold us stolen property.... we're clear... he's not. Not only was this very IMPORTANT document not privy to me, not only did I discover she had the time to get the paperwork herself (no excuse), but ... the freakin court date was for my birthday? If I didn't settle this, I was going to be in contempt of court!
But there was a contingency....
If I was able to get a hold of the detective and deliver the paperwork in question, I would not need to go. After nearly an hour, I was able to reach a detective who came with an affidavit for me to sign in place of having to show in court!!! Damn right I signed it, copied it for the store, and got the Detective's name and badge as he gave me a brochure in his handwriting.
Oh, man.... what a relief!!!
