Default Southern Cali woman finds thirty grand while at work!

A Southern California woman who lives in Pamona, CA and works at the local thrift store found 30,000.00 in cash while sorting through boxes of clothing and such that had been donated by the family of an elderly woman who recently p***ed away! The upstanding employee went to her supervisors who in turn found the family who donated the items and returned the money. The family had no idea that the elderly woman had been stashing money away. The thrift store worker had been rewarded by the family and is being praised by the people she works with as well as the community. What would you have done if that was you?

If it had happened to me, while I wouldn't have WANTED to very much, and since it was easy enough to figure out where the $ came from, I'd see if I could return it. But I'd hate every minute of it!

If I had to work REALLY hard to find out who it belonged to, I might just keep it.

I sound terrible!

I would take the money and go to Mexcio
No j/k I would try to find the family and return it, because if that was my family, I would expect the same.
I'm glad the family gave a reward to the worker, not everyone would be so honest.
