Golf Digest- Tom Colella of Perth lost his job after his employer discovered, via anonymous letter, that the 60-year-old electrician had been disabling his company’s tracking device in order to hit the links. One hundred and forty times, to be exact. According to a workplace tribunal, Colella placed his issued GPS device inside an empty cheesy-puff bag. This makeshift “Faraday cage,” an enclosure which can block electromagnetic fields, allowed Colella to log in his “work” hours while getting real work done on the course. And the scam succeeded: 140 rounds is a Trump-ian feat. Alas, someone ratted out Colella, reporting his rounds to the company. (We can only assume said snake was not a fellow hacker. That, or Colella stiffed someone on a Nassau.)

 

Hold the goddamn phone. This dude got caught because someone snitched on him? What a fucking pussy that other guy must be. I want that dude to get seriously hurt in a hang gliding accident. No offense. “Oh wahhhhhhhhhh Tom is disabling his GPS so he can play golf instead of work wahhhhhhhhhhhhh.” What a baby. Grow up Peter Pan. Count Chocula. Sorry that Tom thought of an awesome idea and you didn’t. You know what you do if you’re this snitch? You don’t snitch and you hold it over Tom’s head like the plague. You black mail him the shit outta him. You black mail him and make him take you on the golf trips with him. Duh. That’s the move. Snitching is usually motivated by jealousy. He could’ve taken that jealously and turned it into his own gain. Instead, the guy decided to be a baby back bitch and write a letter to their employer. What an asshole.

Anyway. What a rush that must’ve been. Getting paid to play 140 rounds of golf. Boondoggle city. Do you think it ever got to the point where he wanted to get caught? I mean probably not. He’s not a serial killer. He’s simply an electrician who wanted to play golf and stick it to the man. It was the perfect plan until some jealous punk decided to rain on his parade. Sad.
