Yesterday as I dumped my bag of dimes in one of my several bank branches coin counters, took my cash-out voucher, and checked for reject coins in the tray below. Yes there was two bent clad quarters which I put in my pocket. Proceeded to one of the open (no line at the time) counter cashier tellers to get my exchange cash for coins. As I got to the window and out of sight of the teller was a letter size envelope on the counter. I picked it up, opening it and saw several bills inside ($50's, $20's, etc). The teller not having sight of it I very easily could have put it in my pocket, but didn't. Don't know how many minutes it may have been laying there, but I handed it over to the window teller none the less. To pick up a few coins out of a reject bin is one thing, but to pickup an envelope with possibly several $100 total would not sit well with me. It could have been someone's payroll check just cashed but may have forgotten it on the counter. How would you have felt if it was yours left on the counter? I proceeded to give it to the teller only to say that "someone just left this by mistake", and just gave her my coin voucher from the coin machine and left it at that, no questions asked. I'm sure that in the course of the morning that person retraced their steps looking for the cash. I felt BETTER to do the right thing. WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE
