Honest, With a Fault

I consider myself to be a very honest person. I tell the absolute truth when I describe the things I sell on Ebay. I never accept the wrong change from a small business person or a teller at the bank (big stores like Sears or Walmart are exempt). I never, ever take something that doesn't belong to me.

Yesterday I went to our local internet casino and spent a pleasant afternoon playing on a machine that wasn't working properly. It only malfunctioned on the bonus so I didn't realize it for a while. At one point I won 100 points on the bonus and was shocked to see 2000 points rack up on my winnings. I thought I must have missed something and that I really had won the 2000 points.

Shortly after I won the bonus again and damned if it didn't malfunction again...another 2000 points!! Now, how honest would a person have to be to run up to the casino staff and tell them one of their machines was paying too much?

They'd have to be a lot more honest than I am.

As I said before, I had a lovely afternoon and lost very little money for a change.

LOL Since we all know the casinos are set up in their favour - it's kind of cool that one machine evened things out a bit!

I thought for one dumb minute you were going to say that you reported it, I would have given you the same choice words I give the casino when they steal (maybe not steal but accept my donation with nary a thank you). Enjoy your winnings. Oh, and I would go back again until I finally lost my money, LOL
