ever do a good deed for someone and they give you ......

[916kings]

I find phones, and money all the time at my job.
I wait until their phone rings, (because its usually the owners who are calling their phone to find it) and I tell them they left it at the store (where Iwork.)

I found money a couple of times and kept it because no one claimed it. (except once when I found 40 bucks, and an hour later 2 little girls came in and saidthey lost it and I gave it back to them.)

It was the right thing to do on your part, and you will be rewarded in other ways in the future...its just how things work.

Good looking, I would've returned it too. I don't like stealing..

 

[recycledpaper]

some of the responses on here are truly pathetic. your parents must have done a real *@$#+% job of raising you if you think it's okay to steal.

to the OP, you're lucky to have even gotten $10. i would have declined the $10 since, like you said, it ain't about the money. it's about relievingsomeone who worried all day about his belongings. it's a good thing you picked it up instead of another NT'er because apparently, this board is filledwith thieves.

dumbest remark i herd yet. you clearly dont get it. if it were about themoney dont u think i would have kept it?

point is i rather u notoffer anything than offer 10 bucks when u were just down a mac, passport,important documents,ipod touch,and a blackberry curve

if it were about the money i would have listed all that on craigslist or ebayand made atleast a g n change

i guess most people complainingare just as cheap as that dude maybe cheaper

seriously though, what were you expecting? just because dude has all that stuff doesnt mean he's a millionaire or something. Be happy withyourself that you did a good thing and keep it moving.

 

[taz92]

You did the right thing and for that you're a good dude. Honestly I would have atleast gave you fifty bucks if not more. But if he had of pulled out $10 Iwould have told him to just keep it and in my mind would have been like...you cheap bast*&d!

Guy leaves his Fanny Pack on a bench in Ceasers Palace... I pick it up
Bad angel (left shoulder)

Good Angel

Take it to lost and found booth.

As i take it there he's there to ask if anybody has found it. The attendent points at me and is like YA this guy just dropped it off.
Homeboy reaches in pulls out all the money...






reaches in the middle and gives me a Starbucks gift card!

with 3 dollas on it!!!
Good angel FTL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[akf0dy7]

i would have came up on a new cellphone/wallet/& $250. the ipod would have went to the marketplace or to the dude that youngdro scammed.

 

[kiddin like jason]

What exactly did you expect?

"You did what any other decent human being would do, just keep everything for yourself."

There's absolutely nothing "shady" about him giving you "just" ten dollars.

 

[airthompson]

Happened to me also, but the lady had 350 and cards. I gave it back cuz karma sshhh bites hard!

 

[ajchick23]

Found a wallet with 100 bucks...returned it and I got 20 bucks...
Pretty cool..and no guilty conscience

 

[damnneardeadstock]

glad you did the right thing. karma will reward you

one time i was at virginia beach and found a parasail ticket. i was gonna use it, cuz the tickets cost like $50, but i decided to do the right thing and turnit in to the guy at the parasail booth. right as i turned it in, a young girl and her husband were asking all of the people at the booth if they could get areplacement. they told them i turned in the ticket. no reward, but it was still worth it.

 

[cadillacflow]

You did the right thing.

 

[oidreez]

what's up with the nt'ers who think it's cool to keep someone elses stuff. watch your reaction when someone keeps something that was yours.

my most recent event was when i found a guy's wallet on the bus with his id , cash and cards in it. i emailed him and gave him back all his stuff and heslipped me a $20.

 

[saymoregotsole]

Somethin is better than nothin I guess.

Was a great day at work.

Real or fake, that's an incredible story. To OP, you're a good man. I would've done the same thing too.

@ 10 bucks. But I would look at it like this. If I expected a large reward, Iwould've kept the stuff. You gave it back out of the goodness of your heart. I'm sure a reward wasn't the first thing on your mind. I commend yougood sir.

 

[gjisprecise]

i probably wouldve taken the money

[geminifly]

One time me and my boy were slap boxing in the mall parking lot and as I went behind a car I saw 2 $100 bills on the floor.
I could've kept them both but since my homie was there I gave him one and kept one for myself, had a great weekend after that.
