Possibly we can start a petition to bring back Fraser.

What he did was morally/ ethically wrong.. Why would you want him re-hired lol ?
When you do something as slimy as this, get caught, and have no consequences , then you learn nothing and keep on being slimier day by day

Any idea how the old man is doing? Did he have any money saved up that can aid him during this hardship?

Howard this has to be your worst post of all time get a grip. This thread is wrong, luckily I play online so I don't have to deal with this type of nonsense.

We don't even know who he is. Even if we wanted to help him out.

I'll give Lou $50 if he posts a real pic of himslf in this thread, and admits he messed up.

I did the impossible and got a picture of Lou. He is a remorseful for the pain caused but is grateful to once again be gainfully employed.

Lucky for us, he is out of the gaming industry. Lucky for him, he is working with an old friend

1.Odds that Lou has seen this thread?
2.Odds that he'll post ITT?
3.Odds that Howard Beale is actually "Lou"?

Well, if anybody ever asks me what my worst post is I can say this one, then. In the meantime, although I can't prove it, I think that there must be some poker rooms where slipping the person running the board/list a 10 spot prob is very beneficial.

I still call 'cheapskates' on most of the posters itt.

He just found out he's in trouble with the IRS because his accountant never sent in his tax payments because Lou never greased him.

We're not talking about the floor manager texting you when a whale sits. We're discussing an ongoing sit n' go that is not running accordingly because lowlife Lou's pockets are feeling a little light.

Meh. A dishonest employee is a dishonest employee. Don't see why he should be given a new position from which to potentially run another scam. He would probably just try to angleshoot by doing the minimum, or less, at any position.

That's a really good reason to come down so hard on it. You're not going to catch it all, but you need to make the penalty for getting caught stiff enough to deter some of it.

Just a guess but since they sacked him over this, there may have been other performance issues as well.

True enough. This is probably the best reason for canning him

You have flexible ethics. I will stick w/ mine.
