Woman sets fire to office filing cabinet to get off work early

Couldn't she have just said she wasn't feeling well? She also tripped the main breaker for the office building so it would lose power and adjusted the phones so no calls could come in. TampaBay.com)

Why couldn't she just go in and shoot a bunch of people like a normal person?

This happened in Texas, too, but people died.

And it was a nurse who set the fire.

I wonder if she knew Oxygen is flammable.

Why didn't she just turn the clocks ahead by an hour?

This section constantly surprises me with new stories of just how far idiots will go with their actions etc

Woke up one day, feelin' kinda bitchy.
She had to go to work, but she wasn't havin' it.
She set a fire in the filing cabinet.
She stopped the phones, and she stopped the electric,
Just to make the whole work place defectively symetric.
When she was busted, the judge didn't quail.
He gave her a fine, and a stretch in jail.
She should have sucked it up and not tried to shirk,
Put on her big girl pants and reported to work.

is that all I have to do? Hmmmmmm

"I wonder if she knew Oxygen is flammable."

bill, why don't you just leave and go elsewhere.
Your crap is really getting old.

If there is a better way to get out of work early, I haven't found it.

She could have just surfed the Internet like everyone else here does.

Depending on your boss and your rep, sometimes if you ask nicely, your boss will just let you go early for the day without deducting time. It's at least worth an attempt before trying Plans B-G.
