I would have talked to management. But you got the right outcome - someone realized they were wrong and turned in the dough. And maybe your son gained a little more respect for his old man.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13298907000328055519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-12482494702567027212011-03-22T18:32:00.173-04:002011-03-22T18:32:00.173-04:00I think you did the right thing too.

That's just my style. And also asked him to point out the customer who said that he would give it to the cashier. I don't think that there is a right or wrong. It is a reaction. I am glad that he got his money back.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642843245634635843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-34822913185866983862011-03-11T17:58:19.482-05:002011-03-11T17:58:19.482-05:00I think you did the right thing.

I would probably have also had some terse words for the woman, but I think you did good!Sushiboofayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02809525274599810265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-24886119861570518032011-03-11T10:44:53.871-05:002011-03-11T10:44:53.871-05:00I would have asked the store manager to make an an...I would have asked the store manager to make an announcement. If they refused, I would have done what you did but with the added provision that you would be calling the cops and filing a police report and your son could identify who took the money. She probably would have broken some track records to return it.YEKIMIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01921751875397071034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-56944994870469310672011-03-10T23:17:07.809-05:002011-03-10T23:17:07.809-05:00I think you did the right thing.

I'd actually expect that the store management would understand the situation (even if you have to explain it).Amelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16792921371964029469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-20689931385285605602011-03-10T10:14:15.257-05:002011-03-10T10:14:15.257-05:00I think you did do the right thing. this lady had ...I think you did do the right thing. this lady had no intention of returning his money.
