The danger of making assumptions...

This story is one of the funniest, yet at the same time saddest, stories I've heard in a while...
According to FOXNews.com, a lady sees a help wanted in the paper, describing a job a lot like hers, with her bosses' phone listed as the contact. She figures he's trying to secretly replace her. So, she goes in to the office (it's an architectural place) and deletes 7 years worth of drawings and blueprints, representing about 2.5 million dollars worth of work. Way to stick it to the man!!
Problem is, the job listing was put in the paper by the bosses' wife, looking to hire someone for her separate company. Oops!
So, the lady has now been arrested for destruction of property greater that $1000, and she's been fired.
See what happens when you make an assumption...
