Jebus: Looking for my Scooper; +218|6192|Belgium

Okay little story here.

Tonight I was biking to practice when all of the sudden I see something in the grass next to me. I turn around and start looking for it. I find it, it's a cellphone. Some kind of Samsung one, looks pretty nice too.

So I decided to start calling some numbers in the phone's list. There was some name that obviously represented her/(his?) boyfriend, so I called it. He said his friend lost his phone (not sure if it was a he or she so I'll just say he ) and that I found it. I couldn't meet up tonight because I had to go to practice. So I gave him my address and he's coming to pick it up tomorrow.

Now that I think of it, I could've just thrown the SIM out and sold the cell for €60 or so. Mean ? Yes. Do I know the person? No. Meh, I guess he/she/it can be happy the mean side of me didn't get the upperhand

I hope karma will repay me for this one day lol...

Anyways, what would you have done?

I turned in a hundred dollar bill that I found on the ground outside a store once, way back when I was a kid and the dinosaurs still roamed the earth. I was hoping to get a reward but instead I got nothing.

Lesson learned...

Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it

I guess.

I'm glad I followed my first thought and decided to return it. It would really suck to lose my phone, so I guess I can feel how it would be for her.
Lol, now I think of it, my evil side is really, really evil

The only thing I would have done different is met him in person outside a local store.

Good idea. The way technology is going you could have been busted just for having it in your possession.

Good on you. I would probably do the same, because I know how fucking annoyed I would be if I lost mine.

Material is good to return. We got at work a little girl happy since we found her lost cellphone. Called her dad's number and he came pick it up. He rewarded us with a pile of chocolate
Money then again? Goes right in my pocket if I find some, unless it don't have a wallet with an id covering it that is.

You did the right thing. The other day I was walking to my tram station, saw a wallet on the floor and gave it to the police. Then I realized, why the fuck didn't I check if there was any money in it? FML
