Money Moral Dilemma: Should I use my 'lost' loyalty card?

2bFrank

Just hand in the loyalty card. Had the exact same thing happen at the coffee shop at work, explain to the lad over the counter that I lost it and he gave me a free coffee, then the next day I found it on the floor under my desk.

The next day went back and handed it over as payment for the free coffee he gave me the previous day, he thanked my honesty and made me another free coffee. It makes no different to the staff.

I wouldn't take the extra free coffee. They've been more than fair with you.

I'd report the employee for defrauding the Company, then sue for the trauma I'd suffered. Probably also find lipstick on the cup, so report them to environmental health! THEY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN!!!!!

Um .... Mountain <<<< Molehill ??! We are talking a piece of paper and a cup of vaguely flavoured lukewarm water.....

i wouldnt be able to sleep at night if i had lost my chance for a free coffee and then by the miracle of kindness was given the chance to savour the flavour of that oh so good coffee :rotfl:

Does it not occur to you that the reason you can't sleep at night is because you drink coffee? :rotfl:


Happy Christmas from a Cornish ex-pat!

They believed you to be honest and gave you another card so how can you even thing of cheating them. Would you lose your self respect all for a cup of coffee.
You are a sad person.

If you don't already know the answer then your moral compass is not working.

Surely if they know you (hence given you a replacement card) and you use the original card, they will know you have been dishonest!

really? A free cup of coffee is a moral dilemma, just do what you want to do!

And here's a proper moral dilemma unlike the tosh we see posted :-


A lesser known play by William Shakespeare, Measure for Measure, a law is decreed that people cannot engage in premarital sex. When a local woman, Juliet, becomes pregnant, Juliet and Claudio (her boyfriend), are put in prison. Claudio is given a death sentence by the new leader in town, Angelo. As he begs and pleads for his life and tries to find a way out of his punishment, Angelo takes an interest in Claudio’s sister, Isabella. Angelo wants to make a deal with Claudio, if he can sleep with Isabella, and in return Claudio will be set free. Not only is this a moral dilemma because Isabella does not want Angelo, but also because she is a nun. She is not allowed to ever have sex. If she violates her law of chastity she will no longer be a member of the covenant. Once she finds out about the deal the moral dilemma becomes hers to bear. Does she save her brother’s life and forever give up her life as a nun, and not only that but degrade herself and have sex with a man she despises? Or does she tell her brother he will have to find another way out of it. Mariana helps her plan a “bed trick”, and offers to stand in and sleep with the leader in her place. Eventually the Duke comes back into town to “right” all of the wrongs that have gone on in his absence. He was able to see everything firsthand, because he posed as a friar instead of leaving town.
