Bad Boss Steals Super Bowl Tickets, Loses Client and Pays Hefty Price

I wish I could say that this story ends with the partner being kicked out of their own firm and having to pay back the $10,000 worth of tickets they stole from their poor worker — alas, that's not always the way the world works. I love a good over-the-top revenge story as much as the rest of you — the kind of story that feels like it would be right at home in the pages of a classic Detective Comics comic book; complete with exclamations "Bang!.. Pow!" as the boss is getting their behind handed to them.

Still, I appreciate the realism of this story; the revenge is well-orchestrated, and the thief experiences some repercussions — still, the story doesn't veer into a "that happened" like these normally tend to.
