It amazes me they did not have security in place to prevent this


Oscar may remember this story, back in the 70's an employee at the Federal Reserve Bank in Cleveland was caught after 10 plus years of walking out of the facility with quarters in his pockets...if i remember right they estimated he walked off with about $15,000 over the years.

I used to do business with them back in those days and had to be in areas where currency and coins were, after that happened they put in new security that made it impossible to walk out of there with something you should not have.

One of the things I still have nightmares about from those days in that building was the currency shredding machine, i would see that thing in operation a couple times per week...it made you sick to see 10's or 100's of thousands of dollars being shredded into tiny pieces.
