Lost & found- affirmations of goodness in many people
I lost a (fake) pearl dropping earring at work yesterday. Even checked across 2 building floors, washrooms..
It was turned into Security office! This is a building with over 1,000 employees plus public wandering about.
My faith in goodness of some people continues because:
*4 months ago: I left pkg. by a bank machine in a shopping mall. I reported it in person at mall security office. 3 wks. later, Someone delivered an envelope of work documents to my work building 5 blocks away.
Other incidents over past 25 yrs.:
*Left a purse hanging on hook in washroom cubicle. In a shopping mall. I retrieved purse from security staff 1 hr. later. (Yea, had wallet, etc.)
*Left a SLR Nikon camera on subway train. 5 min. getting off subway train, I realized I left it behind. I retrieved camera 20 min. later from subway authorities' lost and found office.
*Left purse on back of shopping mall food court chair. I retrieved purse half hr. later from security desk.
*Left wallet on ferry to Nantucket Island. I was in a panic. I was in a foreign country without my wallet. I reported to ferry office. Wallet mailed to me 3 wks. later to Canada.
Security staff can be valuable...anywhere.
I have no interest in carrying a hand/shoulder purse. For me it must be knapsack type.
