G!NG3R420 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 NEW YORK -- A school employee is accused of faking her own daughter's death in order to get another week of vacation in Costa Rica. At the time, Joan Barnett was a parent coordinator at the Manhattan School of Hospitality Management. Authorities say she was so determined to extend her 2010 vacation that in she had one of her daughters call the school and lie about her sister having a heart attack. She even went so far as to provide school officials with a fake death certificate. When the truth finally came out, Barnett ultimately lost her job. In August 2010, another school employee, this time in the Bronx said faked the death of her mother to explain missing three days of work. An issue with the death certificate in that case also led to her ultimately being fired. http://www.ktla.com/...0,3770421.story I am sorry, but if you have to fake your daughters death and have a fake death certificate you deserve more than just losing your job. As well, why do so many people "fake" a loved ones death? That is just stupid all together. Quote

Wifestein Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 What the hell? That woman is stupid! She doesn't even deserve to be a mother. Quote
darkfang77 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 What the hell? That woman is stupid! She doesn't even deserve to be a mother. Yeah, just how stupid is she?! You don't need an M.D to work out that lil girls don't get heart attacks. Unless they're really spoiled. Quote
Nielsvd Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 That woman sounds like a real deadbeat to me. Psh~ Quote
Jefke Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Joan Barnett was a parent coordinator at the Manhattan School of Hospitality Management. => so a parent coordinator faked her daughter death for some reason I'm wondering how good she did her job... Quote
docwarren Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Had a guy I worked with call off work because one of his grandparents had died. If you looked at the 2 years he worked there, he had 9 grandparents die during that time. Quote
Panini*Hobbit@mp3 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Reminds me of the soccer player Stephen Ireland who refused to play for Ireland one night because his "grandmother died". It came out a few days later that she was fine and healthy so he said it was the other one and yet she was the same, nice and healthy. He's still hated to this day for making up a BS story like that.. I don't know what to say about people who lie like this.. I'll just say they need to be lined up next to the Pope and shot countless times.. Quote

bell reavue Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 When I was in 2nd grade I didn't want to take a spelling test so I started crying and told the teacher my dog had died. I'm not ashamed... Quote
