No Good Deed Goes Unpaid

Back on October 5, Debbie Cole found a bag with $65,000 inside. She was at work when she found it and immediately contacted her supervisor. The police were called and the money was eventually returned to the right people. Turns out it had fallen off of an armored truck from the Loomis armored transport company. I’m sure Loomis is red-faced.

I remember watching the news in the days after this happened and wondering if Cole was going to be rewarded for her honestly. I’m willing to bet a lot of people may NOT have returned the cash. A reward, I remembering pondering, might show people that it is worth it to do the right thing, that people are indeed rewarded for being good citizens.

I am happy to report that Cole has been given both a trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando and $5,000. It does indeed go to show that no good deed goes unpaid.

Three cheers for integrity!
