Thought of the day

That's not cool. Why charge people for services or goods that you gave them without them asking for it. That's what you call a scam.

I hate scams like that. Like I've been to a funfair before and they charge 10 bucks for like a mineral water bottle. Like what the heck? Overcharging for something which costs like a mere 3 bucks elsewhere?

So was she trying to get a $5 payment for the water or was she just trying to borrow the $5 and was going to pay you back? If she was expecting you to pay $5 for water you never asked for, then yes she is nuts.

Oh is a kind of modus

I guess getting older has gotten me more flat footed in my reactions. I would have looked at her and the bottle of water and told her that I didn't want the bottle of water and didn't have the $5, so she would need to find the person she thought wanted the water and get the money from them as it certainly wasn't me. When I do things for others I don't expect payment for what I do. A neighbor wants to get a feral cat for outside his place and asked if I could feed it and make it adjusted to living around his house to take care of the mice and rats. He told me he would pay me for my time and I told him that there was no way he would pay me. I would be happy to help him out. It's the same way with helping others out. I carry a few extra dollar bills with me so that I can give them to the homeless to help them out. I do this to help them out and it makes me feel good to be able to help them. I really can't afford it but I make adjustments in my budget to accomplish having the extra dollars. I agree with the others, your fellow worker was pulling a scam with the bottle of water....a glass of water from the faucet is free!
