Monday Mania * daily questions*

These seem to be popular, so I will try and post 5 questions everyday. I will keep it up as long as there are willing participants.

Honesty...

1. The store clerk undercharges you for an item you purchase?
2. The cashier gives you change for a fifty dollar bill when you only gave her a twenty, and you don't realize it until you're out the door?
3. You see your best friend's husband/wife with another woman/man at a neighborhood restaurant?
4. Your 15 year old asks you if you ever tried an alcoholic beverage before you were of legeal drinking age (and you have)?
5. You find a one hundred dollar bill laying on the floor of a department store?

I have pointed it out before, hated to, but I did

2. The cashier gives you change for a fifty dollar bill when you only gave her a twenty, and you don't realize it until you're out the door?

Iv had this happen also, but not with that large of a bill, but I have gone back in and given it back

3. You see your best friend's husband/wife with another woman/man at a neighborhood restaurant?

Go up and speak to them and check the situation out, observe and keep a whole watch on the situation at other times and if anything else I see suspicious happens, I would confront the guilty party to either tell their spouse or I will do it.

4. Your 15 year old asks you if you ever tried an alcoholic beverage before you were of legeal drinking age (and you have)?

I tell them thre truth and some consequences that I suffered because of it

5. You find a one hundred dollar bill laying on the floor of a department store?

pick it up and pocket it baby... you turn it in with no name on it.. you can bet that someone will do the same, if it was in a wallet, thats a different story altogether

1. I wouldn't even notice...but if I did I would probably say something
2. I'd keep it, if I caught it while I was inside I would say something, but I'm not going to go back and return it.
3. I'd mention it to my friend but make it obvious I don't know if it was a friendly thing or romantic.
4. Say yes, then explain to them that, that is what college is for
5. Go to the closest alcohol store and stock up

1. yoink
2. yoink
3. Go say hi, see how uncomfortable they appear, casually mention to the friend that I saw him/her with someone else at a restaurant and let them investigate it as they see fit.
4. Of course everyone tries it, here try some beer "BLEGH!" Problem solved, lol.
5. yoink

The yoinks are assuming that it is a corporation and not a small private business

1. Well it depends on the item.... but I'd say "Excuse me..."
2. Depends how much change I got.... but I'd probly go back and give her/him the excess
3. Could be his/her sibling, cousin, friend they haven't seen in fifteen years...
4. Say nope, and you shouldn't either...
5. lol.... keep it.

ha ha.
2. The cashier gives you change for a fifty dollar bill when you only gave her a twenty, and you don't realize it until you're out the door?
ha ha ha.
3. You see your best friend's husband/wife with another woman/man at a neighborhood restaurant?
I would make sure that they knew I had seen them. [and say nothing to their partner; unless it happened regularly]
4. Your 15 year old asks you if you ever tried an alcoholic beverage before you were of legal drinking age (and you have)?
I would tell them I had and that I regretted it.
5. You find a one hundred dollar bill laying on the floor of a department store?
Ha ha ha ha...Nobody ever returned anything I ever lost!.....agreed; if it was a wallet that would be different. [found 1 in January...handed it in to the post office nearby]

edit: 2. If you were outside the shop and realised they'd overcharged you,you would have a snowballs chance in the proverbial of getting your money back....so fairs fair.

1. The store clerk undercharges you for an item you purchase?
I'd 'yea baby yea!' Not really, I'd probably say something.
2. The cashier gives you change for a fifty dollar bill when you only gave her a twenty, and you don't realize it until you're out the door?
I'd go back but ticked off because the cashier wasted my time because she messed up.
3. You see your best friend's husband/wife with another woman/man at a neighborhood restaurant?
They would know about it. What kind of friend would I be not to let them know?
4. Your 15 year old asks you if you ever tried an alcoholic beverage before you were of legeal drinking age (and you have)?
I'd tell them the truth and the consequences of getting caught doing it yourself.
5. You find a one hundred dollar bill laying on the floor of a department store?
That's a tough one. I'd have to think about it for a while. My problem wouldn't be giving the money back to the owner of the $100, it would be giving the money to the store and having them keep it because no one claims it.
