When I was in HS I worked for a guy my dad knew that ran a cylinder head rebuilding shop out of his garage. He was zoned to do it in a rural area.
I got really good at it and could rebuild a set of v8 heads in record time.
One day he comes into the shop and pulls up the floor over the pit in the floor and tells me to start rebuilding all the heads in the pit. I could not even count how many there were but there were a LOT of them.
I rebuilt every last head and they were all put up on the shelves. He laid me off after that saying he had no work.
About a year later I found out what happened. He had me rebuild all the crackd, no good heads to creat the illusion that he had a huge invetory. He laid me off so I would not be around when he sold the business.
From what I heard the new owner was looking for my old boss and I do not think this was going to be handled in court.
