I once had a xtian woman colleague who would often call in sick on Fridays
or Mondays so that she could do church work. She couldn't see the
dishonesty in her actions.
There was also a Moron ("m" deliberately left out) who was paid a mileage
allowance when he ran errands in his car. Another Moron found out and was
most upset becase he wasn't declaring this "income" to the church for
titheing.
