As much as this story of an upright moving service employee deserves all the applause in the world, another question lingers: Who the heck loses track of a bag filled with $50,000 in cash?
But that’s a question for another day. All hail Jake, who did not fall to the (very seductive) temptation of keeping the mountain of money left behind in a cabinet he was tasked to transport. His employers, Prestige Moving Services, made sure to commend “one of (their) best (men)”.
“We would like to express our gratitude to him for his honesty which not many would have done the same especially honesty is very important in our industry where customer entrust their furniture and belongings to us,” the company wrote in a Facebook post.
Though the company did not mention when this took place, it noted that $50,000 in cash was found wrapped up in a plastic bag and stored in a corner of a cabinet — believed to have been forgotten by a customer.
“Jake, made the best move and decision to return the money in whole amount to the customer,” Prestige wrote, hailing the man’s integrity and hoping that he’d continue working under them for years to come.
Tattoo takeaways
Though it really shouldn’t matter (it’s 2019, people don’t really associate tattoos with negative connotations anymore), folks noted that the tattooed-up Jake should be a lesson in not judging people based on their looks.
