+--- Thread: the old keys scam! (/showthread.php?tid=8430)
- The Sleeper - 02-05-2004
So I had to go and copy my keys today so i can give them to the realtor to show my apartment. So the chick from the office comes by to grab the keys and she asks how much it was so she can reimburse me, and I go "10.50" and she goes, "do you have a reciept?" and I go "uhh no" and she starts getting worried and calls her boss to see if she needs a reciept cause she doesn't want to be a victim of that old keys copying scam. She ends up paying me $10. Now that I think about it, I should've said it was $15 and got my self a milkshake with the extra $5.

well generally when you want to be reimbursed you should have a receipt. thats just basic protocol.

son, this is the real world. you dont just walk into a place of business and ask for free money.
- The Sleeper - 02-05-2004
they came into my place of business, and I did them a favor. if anything, i should get $10 just for the time i took getting the keys duplicated.

if the hardware store fails to give you a receipt at the time of your purchase, you get your meal free.

Getting a receipt is not a brain altering activity.
It's common and you will die in a gutter somewhere if you can't manage to bring yourself to do it.

What's stopping you from getting a milkshake with the 10 dollars?
- The Sleeper - 02-05-2004
cause they are my 10 dollars, if i scammed them, it would be like a free milkshake!

he has to cover his expenses. Were he to spend his principle $10, it would result in a net loss and really drag down the overall ROE of the operation.
- The Jays - 02-05-2004
He's gonna buy a milkshake someday soon anyway, why not just buy it now?

Of course he's going to buy a milkshake, but the funds are going to come from a different account. The operational and general expenses/slush funds are not co-mingled.

certainly not
