Quote of the Day: I don’t know what’s more embarrassing – the porn or the music on your hard drive.”
Yesterday, after I had found the ten dollars on the floor at work, one of my coworkers told us this story about she had found $128 outside the bank, in one of those envelopes they give you when you cash a check. She said she had kept it. I was appalled; there is not plausible explanation for doing something like that. An envelope with $128 in it was clearly some other poor person’s paycheck, child support, or alimony. She said it had to belong to some rich person because of the amount of money. I contend that if ‘rich people’ go to the bank and take out money it is not $128.
I told her I would have gone into the bank and turned it in. I have lost money and other people have done that for me. I have found lost money and returned it. The bank knows whose money that it is, how many people could have possibly taken out $128? They would be able to find out to whom it belonged on their own or the poor soul would have returned on their own.
The second time I returned the money the person never returned and after two weeks, it was credited to my account.
I was so angry. What kind of person is she? Who takes from other poor people? Someone who watches too much My Name is Earl said, “Karma will get her.” I decided to let myself by the vessel of her karma. I just didn’t know how or when.
Then, while taking the nuggets out of the fryer, I dropped four of them on the floor. I put them in a box (because they were hot and I didn’t want to carry them by hand to the food waste) and when she saw them, she asked if I was going to eat them and I said, “no” and she asked for them and ate them. She likes them right out of the oil, I‘ll admit: the fresher the better. However, I would never eat off the floor.
Oh good shot with being passive aggressive! AND it is someone with out ANY ethics that takes what is NOT theirs!
