Scrap workers find $128,000 in safe
Fri Jan 30, 12:22 pm ET

BERLIN (Reuters) – Workers at a steel plant near Berlin found 100,000 euros ($128,500) in a safe that a bank had sent to be scrapped -- but they did the decent thing and gave it back.

An employee at Germany's Postbank had failed to take out the cash before sending the safe to the scrapyard. Spokesman Ralf Palm blamed "the carelessness of an employee when a branch office moved in December."

No way unless a lot of people saw it

I think it might be even worse than finding a fancy camera on the highway.

No, not even if I needed it badly. I wouldn't be able to live with it.

The Swedes were known for their honesty before. They said that if you lost your wallet on a street in Stockholm in 1950, you could be as good as 100% sure to get it back.

Agreed. And the money belonged to a fucking bank, not to private citizens.
