[QUOTE="Stevearino, post: 2948886, member: 74571"]Reading [USER=33176]@Kentucky[/USER]'s post about finding the $100 bill reminded me of the day I was working at the Roger Maris Cancer Center in Fargo, ND, during a bitterly cold day a few years ago. I was a greeter, meeting patients at the door, getting a wheelchair if necessary, offering directions and a friendly welcome to folks who needed one. A woman standing looking out a window saw a $100 bill in the snow. I went out to retrieve it and held it, expecting someone to inquire about it. The "spotter" had no interest in trying to claim it. Sure enough, about an hour later an oncologist who always walked VERY quickly (so fast that whenever I saw him coming I always pushed the buttons for both doors and stood out of the way as he rushed past) came asking if anyone had found a $100 bill. I had been hoping that a cancer patient had lost it and would ask about it, but was happy that someone caring for them could reclaim it. At least I got to hold it for a few minutes :happy: .
