Hey Pandas, What Was That One Time When You Looked Really Guilty, But You Actually Weren’t? (Closed)

Literally any time I’m accused of something. I can’t help but smirk and laugh which just makes me look guilty although I’m most likely innocent.
And yes this even applies so more *serious* accusations. Damn nervous laughter.

Ok, so I was across the country where the time zone was three hours ahead. When I got back, I went to bed early and when I got up, my phone said it was 3:06 am. I just assumed that it wasn't calibrated with the time zone yet (yes, Very much a brain fart moment considering it was 3 hours AHEAD in the different time zone) and went down to play video games. Of course, as I soon found out, I had been playing video games at 3:00. Thank God I didn't play a first-person shooter or I would be in so much trouble😅

Every time I am leaving a store and the security alarm goes off because they didn’t demagnetize the item I had just purchased properly! I automatically look for an employee and say here is my receipt! You can search me if you want!! I panic for some reason because everyone looks at you!

When the managers sister was training and working with me on a shift. At the end of the night she commented that there was an extra $50 in the cash drawer and I told her if I'm busy then I will leave a tip in the drawer when the customer tells me to keep the change and then pull the tips at the end of the night when I count my drawer. So she puts the $50 in the tip jar and then I split my tips with her.
I then come in my following shift and am told that there was a tab left open for $35 that I'm required to pay and I state that I closed all of my open tabs so I have no idea what they are talking about.
The managers sister offers up $10 and says she paid half of it so the manager tells me I'm required to pay $25 for a tab that was not open on my register when I closed for the night. So I pay it while being p*ssed off since I feel like they're forcing me to pay for either a nonexistent open tab or one that was left open from day shift. So then I look up the tab and discover it's a regular so I speak to the regular and they tell me that they put the money down on the bar in front of the managers sister at the end of the night as she had been the one to take care of them and said that they watched her put the money in the cash drawer - which was $45. This made sense to me since I usually never have more than $5 extra in my drawer at the end of a shift with an occasional exception here and there.
Right after speaking to the customer the owner comes in and fires me for theft while I'm in tears stating that I don't steal and I've never stolen anything from any job and Id already paid the tab that I had no knowledge of to start with and it's actually illegal of them to force me to pay for an unpaid tab that I didn't receive a payment for and didn't interact with the people at all during my shift plus the people had a pool table rental of $25 and then spent $10 on three sodas apparently and I'm a bartender so if they weren't drinking why would I have? I had a trainee there learning how to do pool table rentals and etc. Like duh.
But I knew it would be pointless to tell them that the manager's sister had put the money in my cash drawer and forgot to close the tab and I never saw the tab since it was opened under her training screen. I was screwed because she was the new manager's sister and I didn't feel like there was any point in defending myself when it was the new manager who wanted me fired to hide her sister's mistake.
As I was leaving I saw her sister out back of the bar smoking a joint with a customer and I just laughed knowing the owners were going to ruin their business by trusting their new manager and her sister who between the two of them had less than 6 months of bar experience while me and my 12 years of experience went on to a better job.
