As HRB exhaustingly searches for the quirkier HR stories, we’re starting to see a pattern: People impersonating real employees.
About a month ago, we told you the story of a young man who was pretending to be a doctor at a hospital in an attempt to meet women.
While medical privacy could have been an issue there, entirely different issues of privacy were at stake when a man pretending to be a priest tried to take confessions in St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City.
In a published interview, Vatican judge Gianluigi Marrone said the man was caught just as he was trying to take position in a confessional.
The man was wearing a priest’s garb and his papers even seemed to be in order, according to Marrone. However, Vatican personnel perceived some strange behavior.
A crosscheck with Italian authorities revealed the man had attempted the same ruse in other churches in Italy.
If this man really wants to hear about other people’s misdeeds on a regular basis, maybe he should go into HR.
