To My Son I Do Bequeath My Office Job
Unemployment got you down? Probably not as much as it got one man from Patna, India down. He was frustrated with not being able to find employment, and then began plotting on how to get a job. It seems there is a sort of custom in India where a job might be offered to a member of the family if someone were to die while still holding a job.
This man from the rather poor eastern Bihar state of India upon finding out his father was going to retire set his plan into motion. He paid a relative about $2,500 to murder his father on the weekend of May 31st, just a couple of days prior to his planned retirement.
His father was a government employee that worked as a low-ranking worker in a local office.
My questions are, where did he get the $2,500 to pay to have his father whacked, and was that price after the family discount?
I also see a possible movie sequel in this story. . .
Either, “Office Space II: Thanks for the Reference Dad!”
Or, “Harold & Kumar Get a Job”
Sometimes real life is so much stranger and somewhat funnier than fiction.
