Hole In One, Or Two
I worked for a boss who wasn’t so much of a tool as much
as she was a monster when it came to the legality of things. We
worked for an insurance claims agency, and she happened to have LOTS
of friends getting LOTS of discounts on their insurance. I was
suspicious to say the least.
A year passed, and I found out that this woman had one hobby: telling
EVERYONE about her sex life. I will never go a day without hearing
this haunting line:
“Sweetie, you really don’t know good sex ’til you’ve had a man
filling up everyone hole at once!”
It gives me nightmares. Seriously.
Anyhow, as the summer started coming around, accident season was upon
us (teenagers and adults going on vacation, more driving, etc). I saw
her making some personal changes to a lot of files. When I asked her
what she was doing, she told me she’s looking over the accident
reports for a few friends, looking for errors.
This would have all been legal, had she not been trying to do more
than look; she was making corrections and making it look like her
friends weren’t at fault when they were.
I told her this is illegal, and I got the second gem out of her since
I’d worked there:
“Well, we ALL do things illegal. I know everything that happens in
this office, and I know you do illegal things, too.”
When I asked her to provide evidence, she told me to back off. When I
didn’t back off, she threatened to fire me. When she threatened to
fire me, I threatened to report her on a grand number of charges.
She called my bluff and fired me. A week later, she was seen on local
news, pleading guilty in court for fraud and a plethora of fun
charges.
I got employed two weeks later at an insurance company that doesn’t
completely suck.

She probably didn’t go to jail, but it’s too bad, as she could have gotten a lot of her holes filled there.
Total BS. There is no way she was investigated, charged and in court within a week.
@Jeff – LoL!!
@OP – Glad to hear you followed through on your threat. Sounds like that Queen B got what she deserved.
what a freak! glad you busted her a$s! good story.
She was already pulled into court and pleaded guilty in one week?!? That is a little too fast. It takes a month before a speeding ticket is sent to my house.
If the OP said “six months later she was on TV…..” I wouldn’t be calling BS to the post.
The insurance’s own internal investigators would take a few weeks to validate the fraud claim.
Then the insurance watchdog would contact the local authorities.
The District Attorney would then build a solid case against her.
But seriously….a week?
Wow, that sure was a quick investigation if she was coping a plea a week later.
Good for you to have done what you did! At least she won’t be ripping off the insurance company, which costs the people even more money in the long run.
LOL
Unless there was already an investigation going on and all OP did was provide direct evidence, Things like that can happen.
This would have been in the news, and if in the news then on the internet, and if on the internet… the page(s) would still be available.
Links or it didn’t happen.
Being that I have worked in the insurance industry for almost a decade. I will call her bluff and agree BS! I’ve never heard of an Insurance Claims Agency before. Plus I can’t think of any company who allows people to adjust claims for aquaintences much less friends.
I doubt the OP meant exactly 7 days later…geez… Probably just trying to get across the point that Queen Bee got hers. Lay off…
I don’t think the OP is saying they were responsible for having her in court. They are certainly implying they were the cause, but I daresay the two events are entirely unrelated and they just want us to give them the credit.
You people do realize that her arraignment might not have had anything to do with the OP, and that it’s possible that she was being investigated for a while for her illegal activities. Yes, obviously, it takes more than a week to go from arrest to arraignment. Obviously, if she were on TV that next week, then there was a pre-existing situation.
no way is this a true story…insurance COMPANIES handle claims not AGENCIES….and her friends just can’t get DISCOUNTS – that are way too many layers of checks and balances to give random discounts without getting caught.
And no freakin’ way was an insurance fraud case investigated and brought to court in a week – they take months and months and most of them do not go to court – its up to the DA to press the charges even if there is a ton of supporting evidence – trust me – I’ve been in the insurance business since 1988 and have seen a ton of fraudulent activity not result in an arrest.
damn, what a fast investigation!!! One week! And it was on the news. How convienient for your story.
Embellish much?
*shakes head… she could have been in court a week later to make her pleadings, the insurance company may have already had a heads up on this employee and was already investigating… just sayin
I don’t understand why so many people are so adamant that this woman couldn’t be arrested in a week. First up, it’s possible the home office was already aware of irregularities and had been investigating the situation. Secondly,if they had found irrefutable proof of this woman altering documents, it takes no more then a day or even a few hours to deal with that situation, I have seen it happen to a manager where I work when he left a paper trail of embezzling cash by rewriting receipts. And OP said in her post that she walked in on the woman altering the documents, so the proof was at hand.
As for the court trial, if she was pleading guilty it’s not hard to see that this was the initial arraignment from her arrest, which would be federal fraud charges, and that means that state’s insurance regulation entity would move that fast to bring charges. I know, I once held an insurance license in the state I live in, those people DON’T mess around as this usually means thousands of dollars are involved (grand theft charges), and it’s done to maintain public trust in the insurance system. Again, this points to irrefutable proof being found that this woman’s lawyer advised her not to fight in court and simply plead guilty to get leniency. I would even venture a guess she struck a deal will the DA or even the state attorney general to testify against her friends, and that is why things moved so fast. It would have turned into a high profile multi-pronged case against several people for a lot of money. Such a case is a career highlight for elected or appointed prosecutors.
I would love to see a news report about this, but I know that would violate the OP’s privacy.
okay you bs callers think about this… there is always the possibility that the company was already investigating her and the OP was the tipping point. And there is always the possibility that the thing the OP saw on tv could have been real since once they are arrested in most states you have to be in front of a magistrate within 72 hours for a bail hearing and depending on the investigation and what was found the DA may have approached her in jail as soon as she was arrested. If she already has a lawyer and doesn’t need a public defender the DA could have talked with her and offered a deal and the bail hearing could have been when she accepted the plea agreement. It does happen.
The news report would validate the story. I would the first to say “sorry for calling BS.”
A link to the news report should not violate the OP privacy. Unless the person said “DAMN YOU OP!!! “
By the way, have her give me a call. I can fill a hole for her, that dirty little slut.
I work for an insurance company right now and we call our claims office the Claims Agency!! It’s a sperate entity in the insurance company…..potato potato
@insurance lady — You know, there’s a lot of rather small insurance companies out there, some better run than others.
The bit about having all you holes filled adds nothing to this story. Nothing at all.
Perhaps the “true” part is the woman’s filthy talk, which I believe could actually happen. And if a supervisor or co-worker talk like this, making you uncomfortable and unable to do your job, she is creating a hostile work environment, and you need to talk to the people over her.
It does sound a little fantastic she was nabbed in only a week. But some local news sources are quick to report on investigations rather than actual charges.
Also- ew. Even if I had a boss that didn’t commit fraud I would report the sexual harassment word vomit.
