When we had our business in California, we took a chance and hired an ex-con. He stole us blind, goofed off, used the company van for personal business and transportation, company cell phone for personal conversations, was rude, disrespectful, and aloof, and just generally turned us off hiring ex-cons.
But he didn’t have facial tattoos.
We fired him and ratted him out to his parole officer, and he was supposed to pay us back, but we never heard from him again. We opted not to press charges but realize now that it was a mistake. We should have had him arrested.
Damn, no good deed goes unpunished. Donuts to dollars he’s back in prison now.
