We're all just going around in circles with this one now, I think...0

Last week I ordered a food processor from Tesco Direct. When I opened the box, they had mistakenly sent me two. I phoned immediately, explained and today, their courier picked it up from me. I could have said nothing and nobody any the wiser. However, my reputation for honesty would have been damaged in my OWN eyes and I would not have wanted to risk that some poor underpaid soul in a packing place somewhere would be suspected of dishonesty when the stock count didn't tally.
Finding a £1 coin in the pocket of a charity shop jacket is one thing - deliberately walking out of a bank with £100 mistakenly given you is quite another, in my opinion. My second opinion is that, despite what you appear to think, there are still many, many honest people in this country. You might be wise to emulate them.0 -

Good to see so many honest people still around (except you know who.)
I did enjoy Fat Boy's post!Today is the first day of the rest of your life0 -
it is clearly the bank assistants fault becuase i aksed for £150, signed a sheet fr £150 and she counted it out correctly. i didnt pull a fast one, if someone came upto you and said ''this cash machine is giving out twice the money it should do'' wouldnt you go for some money? i dont think you are all suggesting you would be as honest as you say
The bank assistant made a mistake. He/she will have probably got in a lot of trouble. You tried to pull a fast one and now are only angry cos you got caught out.
As for the cash machine, perhaps. Perhaps we all would but that doesn't mean its the right thing to do.
Get over it.
And I agree fatboy's post is class! I must use that elsewhere!0 -
Nice one, Fat Boy...0
