I think my boss is going to jail for money laundering. This might turn out advantageous to me in the long run, but it kind of sucks for him, and he is not altogether a bad guy. The full story (as it stands), because it's the most interesting thing to happen to me for a while:
At first, Revenue Canada was calling the business, calls that he was dodging.
Then, guys in suits started showing up and looking for him. He was dodging them too.
Then, he took down the interact machine. It turns out his personal and business accounts were frozen.
He also took down the business signs. I still don't really see why, but it seemed important.
He left town for a couple days a few times, not out of the ordinary, but before he left he'd tell me that it would probably not be advisable to divulge his whereabouts. Which was strange.
Eventually he told me a bunch of stuff I already knew, while he was hooking up the interact again. Apparently he switched them to operate on a "backup" bank account.
A few days pass, and today we're talking about the cops or something. He goes "Speaking of the federali's, I've been having some trouble with them myself lately." And I was all "Yeah they've been leaving messages." He said something along the lines of "Yeah, well, anyway. They think I'm money laundering. Ha, ha. Me, money laundering. Crazy right? Anyway, I think it would probably be best to not be too liberal with information to anybody right now. It's none of their fucking business." He also told me that they'd removed all the money from his frozen accounts, as well as accounts he has in other names.
And then he left.
Shit just got real.
