Surprisingly Good

It seems like we are disappointed by something or someone almost daily.  This morning I was surprised by the selfless act of two people I don’t even know.

I received a call this morning from the admin of one of our Vice Presidents.  When she said that Rob..... was on the line, I had no clue who she was talking about.  All I heard was from the office of xxxxx and froze.  I was actually a little freaked because this particular VP could be, well, um...let's just say scary mean.

The next thing I hear is something about not putting a check in my pocket.  That the janitorial staff had turned in a check found in the women's room.  That they had written the location and the specific stall number on the note.

Then I hear my friend’s voice…"You shouldn’t have put the check in your pocket!"

Doh!  It was the check I had in my pocket the day before.  The check I had signed and intended to mobile deposit.

It was the check that was made out to CASH in the amount of $70.  

Anyone could have taken and cashed the check.  Someone could have been $70 to the good, but what did they do?  Turned it in instead!   

I couldn’t believe it!!! This VP’s admin called the bank to get my friends number.  She then called my friend to find out who I was and then brought me into the call.  She went to some pretty extraordinary lengths to find me. 

My signature on the back of the check was just a squiggly S and G. 

So, in a plant where this type behavior is not acknowledged or encouraged, two people, unknown to me, went above and beyond to do THE RIGHT THING.  

There is good in this world.  And God definitely has my back!

Take a look at this....the note and the check...

Thank you God!!!!  And thank you Liz and Brian!!!  I actually gave Liz a gift and complimented her on her christian behavior today.  Now to find Brian! ;)
