She Ran Out of Vacation Days?

You owe one of your friends at the fast food place where you work some money and you don’t have it. So rather than face him, you figure that you would just stay out of work. You could call in sick but that would be so… boring. One 21-year old German woman decided that the best way to avoid going to work would be to send her parents a text message saying that she had been kidnapped. The genius of this plan is not only did she get to stay out of work, but she also caused her parents to worry about her and fear that she was killed plus she got the police of the Bavarian town of Straubing to spend a day searching for her. She turned up the next day, Christmas Eve, and eventually admitted that she made the whole thing up. She now faces a fine that is about 40 times what she owed her friend.
