in Freewriters21 hours ago


Picture Source

Sarah has worked as a sales rep for Mr. Jones for seven years now. Within this space of time Sarah had known most of their regular customers who usually place huge orders and pay later. She most times receive the repayment either in cash or by bank transfers.

There was this particular customer of theirs who took delivery of about fifty cartoons of their products on credit. It took him over three months to pay off for the goods. When he finally did Sarah received it in cash and kept it with her.

When Mr. Jones showed up for work after about a fortnight Sarah gave him part of the money and kept tht rest for herself saying she hst she deserves it because she has been the one disturbing the man to make the repayment. "Is this a partnership?, a furious Mr. Jones asked. In a subtle voice Sarah promised to repay the balance but Mr. Jones was not pleased with her explanations.

From then henceforth Mr. Jones became very suspicious of her activities. When she finished making the repayment she was relived of her duties.
