3. How did you get your comic book store boss arrested for software piracy?

I have no idea who turned on him, but to this day he owes me my last pay

I was the only employee working for a guy who ran a comic book store, so he could get his weekends off. The job was sweet, pretty much lying back reading comic books most of the day as it wasn't a very heavily trafficked store. He also paid me in cash weekly.

One day, I came to the store as usual and noticed my key didn't work anymore. Looking into the store, it was completely empty! I asked the neighbors (it was a strip mall) if they had any ideas what happened, and one told me the place was swarming with cops the night before and they emptied it out and arrested my boss.

They seemed to think it was for selling pirated software out of te back of the store - but I guess I'll never know the truth unless I happen to run into that guy again
