Moral Dilemma

[Bammer]

So I’m in ahuge hurry at the grocery store today, just grabbing a couple quick things - enough of a hurry not to notice that there was already a basket of stuff waiting to be scanned at the self checkout register that I started using. It said “Open” so I scanned my two things and then when paying it applied a coupon that I hadn’t entered. Cut my total about in half. I was walking away when I realized another customer must have brought their groceries to this particular self checkout register, got started with their coupon, but then something happened and they must have needed help from a clerk and walked away for a minute. Oops.

So what do you do?

Why are there three threads for this?

Do you believe in God?

[lennytheweedwhacker]

Wouldn't their items be there if they went to get a clerk? Or it seems they would have scanned the coupons after scanning the items. I wouldn't think anything of it if there was no evidence someone was coming back to use it. God bless.

So your rush is more important than the person who may have really needed that coupon to help with groceries? Wow.

That person just had their life savings of $80000 stolen from them and needed that coupon to eat. And you took that from them.

We’re talking about like 5 bucks right

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

Saturday morning my wife and I went out for an early breakfast around 7:30 and we have a new doorman/concierge and he was sound asleep..I hit the counter with my hand as a joke to wake him up and introduce myself..he's probably mid 20s and Eastern European..anyway, I went down just now to get mail and he was asleep again..I asked him if he was ok and this is the 2nd time in 2 days you've been asleep..he said he was fine..obviously there are cameras that probably notice it and there are about 350 apartments in this place..do I rat him out or do you think they're already on it?

That's a good way for a lobby sofa to get stolen
