Today my dad found a wallet today containing £400 + a few hundred Euros + Credit Cards and usual wallet stuff. He found it outside a shop so he walked in and with the details in the wallet discovered that it belonged to a regular customer of this shop. So my dad left his details incase the man wanted to thank him or whatever. And about 10 minutes ago, this man calls and thanks him etc.

I started thinking about what I would have done in the same situation as my dad. Would I have gone in the shop and given the wallet in? Would you?

I'd have pocketed a tenner and given the rest in.

I have a terrible concience that eats away at me if I do immoral things like that.

yes i know but still it's been in my mind ever since, i think he was mentally disabled, i suppose it made me feel a little better about not taking it, but i could have given a great christmas to the people i love and that is what bother's me.

I would have returned it because I can't stand being put in the same situation .

just before christmas i was at the bank cash machine, waiting for the guy in front of me to finish, when he eventually walked off i walked up to the machine to see the words "DO YOU WISH TO MAKE ANOTHER TRANSACTION" the guy had walked off leaving his card in the machine and me the option to empty his account, i automatically pressed the no button and ran after him with his card.
Why the hell am i so bloody angelic? i could have had a dream christmas!

I'd like to be able to say i'd have handed it in and been all goody goody but the truth is i'd have probably picked that wallet up and just kept on walking.
