HONESTY IS STILL THE BEST POLICY?!?


Last thursday my husband bought a Shiseido shampoo set as a gift for his mom. But before going home, he and his friend stopped by a food station to take-out some dinner. They were so engrosed with their conversation that my husband forgot his shiseido bag on the store. He was already home when he remembered and was too tired to go back to the store. He was thinking to drop by the food store by friday night after office but he had too much work that he had an overtime of up to 930. He thought it was hopeless and the shampoo would have been gone by now or picked up by other customers. Saturday morning he had second thoughts of buying his lunch on that store but decided to go anyways. While ordering, he asked the crew if she saw a plastic bag that he left last thursday. He was surprised that the crew took out a plastic bag and gave it to him. It's amazing that people has still a touch of honesty in them. Anyone could have picked it up since it's been left 2 days ago.

I also, was a witness of this honesty.. there are wallets left in the ladies toilet and yet nobody dares to take it.. in the supermarkets here.. their supplies are left outside unattended but nobody sneaks out and shoplifts. In bus stations, the driver went out of their ways to return the baggages left by the passengers.

No wonder this country was branded as one of the safest place to live.. no wonder people here live in harmony .. honesty really brings peace and order to everybody..
