Got this in the mail the other day and wonder if it's accurate. I heard and read of incidents of crime, corruption etc by Parliamentary offcials, but this is crazy.

 

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

 
29 have been accused of spousal abuse
 7 have been arrested for fraud
 19 have been accused of writing bad cheques
 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
 3 have done time for assault
 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

 
373 in total or approximately 70%
 Can you guess which organization this is?

Woolworths Pets

I received this weird email in my inbox yesterday, I am going to quote the body of the email,

 

 " Seriously.... I am not forwarding this on from anybody.... this happened to me Monday morning (23rd February).  I popped into Woolworths at Dainfern at about 12h30 and bought some fruit (check out the 'sell by' date on the box).  I put the box of grapes on the seat beside me and started to (blindly) eat the grapes whilst I was driving.  Then I noticed as I was popping another into my mouth that it was white and fluffy!  This is what I found.  I took photos to show you.
 
What happened to their quality control?.... this is not a small Sac Spider nest.  Remember that the Sac Spider is the biggest cause of severe spider bites in South Africa and patients often have to be hospitalised.  This one and her babies happened to be dead already.
 
Be careful when buying Woolies.... don't trust them blindly like I did.  I want to take this up with Woolworths.  I'll let you know what happens.
