Long ago, in a land far, far away.
Well, ~9 miles away.
My then boss offered to buy me a brand new Renault Fuego 1.8 Turbo (I told you it was a long time ago); if I backed him up at the bank, where he was trying to finagle a new loan.
I refused (and not just because I hate Renaults), but he managed to get the loan anyway.
Spent it all on himself and 18 months later we were declared bankrupt; I should have taken the car......
Pirate, because I found out later he had rep for it; he had done the same thing about 3-4 times, leaving suppliers and employees seriously out of pocket.
