I think you should've thanked the man and said you would make a donation in his name to the Obama campaign !!
Doesn't need it. Look at his competition.

I'm sure he was on one of his 10 minute breaks. I bet you decline all your xmass gifts also....

...a $25 gift card to a local restaurant for good customer service for the whole year is one thing---a one time reward of $700 for doing the right thing once seems over the top...

I found a brief case belonging to a lawyer with all his work documents, credit cards, driver's license, and other legal briefs, and close to $1,000 in cash. When I brought it to his home, after talking to him on the phone, his wife gave me a $20 and shut the door. I don't think she even thanked me.

over the top I can agree with. But he was so happy that it was turned in that he offered. I have been dropping off all sorts of +100lb packages for months there. And don't tell me you wouldn't accept it if it was offered.

Well your a better person then me I guess. We just had another child so I was thinking about them.
I'd take it. No way I would insult the man by refusing the thank you gift.

I normally tell customers " oh, I can't" as my hand is reaching out and taking the money at the same time.

While in pkg, I found all sorts of tools and generally put them in my pkg car. Hammers, screwdrivers, wrenches(always 9mm) why 9mm? My most prized find was a nice Snap On brand pry bar with handle. My mechanic wanted that one.....Anyway.....my pkg car went to the crusher the other day and the mechanics gathered all those tools and gave them to me. kinda fun. Yes, I used some of those tools to prevent road calls.....Yes, I got a pass for personal property.......

Wow! Talk about ungratitude. I have dealt with people who look down on blue collar types and I bet she is one of them. So far, I have found nothing worth reporting. Perhaps a new route?

several cell-phones, all returned to their owners...got a few bucks for some of them............quite a few wallets and purses...all of which I left w/ the local Police Dept. or returned if they were on area....alot of pieces of jewelry, most of it was damaged after being run over by vehicles.......a few pieces of currency scattered about...........the best however was a cash bag, lying in the middle of the main road on route.....called the center immediately, to let them know I was taking it to the PD......60 days later nobody claimed it..it was mine......it contained mostly coin, along with several small bills...$200.00 for me....honesty paid off
