How would you react if your boss suddenly came up to you, claimed they were on the phone with a police officer who says that you are the prime suspect of a theft?
Then what if, in request of this absent police officer, the manager is directed to detain you in the back room of your place of employment? What if the so-called police officer asks your manager to search you, would you let them? What would you say if you were asked to hand your cell phone and belongings over? Would you be okay with being subject to a strip search, conducted by your boss? How about if you were asked to get naked and jump up and down to shake loose the supposed stolen item? Hypothetically, how many of these absurd demands would you be willing to comply with? I’ll wait for your response…
Yeah, that’s what I thought, that shit sounds outrageous. Most people might go to the back room to try and sort out the situation, but nobody is going to give up their cell phone. They definitely aren’t going to get naked. At least, that’s what I thought. I also thought that if you were the manager, you may find it odd that the police were calling you, instead of just showing up. You’re probably wondering why I’m even saying all this?.... Because it actually happened.
Today we’re going to talk about this perplexing situation in detail and the circumstances that would even lead someone to comply with such absurd demands in today’s episode of, Straight Outta’ Plantation.
