I'm innocent, I swear!

Today, I got a surprise raise and a promotion at work. Hours after accepting, our company was raided by police on fraud charges. Due to my new managerial position, I had to get grilled by cops. I may not have a job at all next week. FML

What comes up must come down, including new managers I guess.

Yep. And it sounds to me like they knew the cops were about to raid the place and needed a sudden fall guy.

It sucks being used like that, tell the police you just now become (your position), and the other guy did it.

Maybe that was the world telling you working there was no good? I hope you can find something better soon!

Extra soon, actually. Once the news spreads that your current employers were raided, it could be seen as a black mark on your resume if you apply within the same field.

Before "Fun with Dick & Jane", this was the plot for the movie "Moving" with Richard Pryor in 1988.

Before it was the plot of Moving it was the plot of the original Fun With Dick And Jane in 1977
