good deed just in time

Tuesday
Saving log - $3 tip box
Spending log- $1.19 coffee + $7 lunch

Wednesday
Saving log - $5 tip box
Spending log - $1.19 coffee + $5 lunch

To recap, one of our temp staff found ones (for a football pool) and a man's paycheck in an envelope on Friday night and was going to try and put it in the safe as I was leaving. I didn't have the key to the safe, so we put it in a safe place for Tuesday morning.

Looking at the paycheck, I knew that this guy's office was in the building next door. The temp and I took a little field trip to the office that morning.

Total success!

Turns out that on our way to the receptionist we were intercepted by their head of HR. Apparently the guy had requested a new paycheck cut and she was on the way to start the process when we stopped by. HR head also waved the guy in so temp staffer could give him the envelope personally.

The temp staffer was so shy. The guy was going to give her a couple of bucks as a reward, but she waved him off. I think I would have waved him off too (maybe Big Grin) but it was a nice gesture on his part.

But I did put one of my business cards (writing the temp staffer's name on the card) in the envelope. We work for a non-profit...maybe it will plant a seed for next year.
