Where money is involved, crooks always find a way. Count your change at the drive thru too. It has been common practice among thieves to short change the drive thru customer a dollar or two as opportunity allows. Thats why they “throw” your change back to you as if they are in a hurry. Over a shift one can acquire several hundred dollars and the cash register will still balance. The customer is usually way down the road when they discover the shortage if they ever do. COUNT YOUR CHANGE BEFORE YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE.

Seems as this might be an invitation for all employees to start bilking the employer. The problem is most all people have to much class to do that. Most of the people,are really good hard working folks. It’s the few bad apples that ruin the whole bushel.

> “BILKED”…is that a cross between milked and billed? Just kidding around William!

“Bilked” really is a word.

v. To defraud, cheat, or swindle

It’s one of those words you don’t get to use very much in life. I’ve always like the sound of it.

So she gets basically 8 months and pays back 5,000 of a 45,000 dollar
rip off.
Gee that means she got 40,000.00 for 8 months.
Does that sound like a good deal to anyone else?
I mean for her, not for the tax payers that will have to make up\
the difference.
It always comes back to us to pay more to mitigate these kinds of
damages……

“In her plea agreement, McMurphy admitted that while working for Buckley and Buckley Family Dentistry between January 1, 2006, and November, 2008, she bilked about $45,000 from insurance companies by filing false claims for services never performed or by upgrading lower cost procedures to higher cost procedures.”

“BILKED”…is that a cross between milked and billed? Just kidding around William!
