And I mentioned idiom above "road to hell is paved with good intentions" - why do you think this idiom exists? I didn't make it up. It is ancient. In my language we have similar "all good intentions should be punished" |
I forgot to mentioned Good Samaritan law. Not this case, but has some connections: people use to sue other people for saving their lives. Only in America:)

I remember one time leaving a smart phone in the gym, when they were new and expensive and a guy called me saying it was at his office. I felt really weird about it and the fact that he took it. His logic was that the employees of the gym were largely douchebags and the phone was expensive, so he kept it for me. I remember agreeing with him and being grateful that he did that but at the same time, I remember being really uncomfortable with the fact that he had my property in his possession and couldn't help feeling agitated about it, though i understood it even in the moment to be irrational. I would guess the woman was more anxious and uncomfortable and didn't know how to deal with it than being an asshole.
That said, I (and tell my girlfriend regularly) start with the base assumption that everyone is an asshole. It sounds harsh, but even more harsh is constantly trying to reconcile the fact that you expected people to act the right way or do the right thing with the fact that they almost never do. The downside is zero. The upside is that when people act human, polite, considerate, helpful, courteous and so on, its a pleasant surprise that gives you hope. :) |
No rational person would say that after someone went out of their way to return lost property. She is clearly mentally unstable and while that may lead to "success" in whatever business she was running, it doesn't translate into her life.
She is a sad bitter woman with deep self loathing. She was angry at YOU because you did something she know that she would not have done yet she knows that it is the right thing to do. She lashed out at you because what she would have done is taken the money (and perhaps the wallet as well) and never contacted the rightful owner. Sad empty pathetic woman indeed and is incapable of enjoying life. She will die alone and bitter never even experiencing the joys that life has to offer. |

Ridiculous that society had reached the point where this sort of law had to be created just to protect people who help others. |

Expecting gratitude for doing a good deed for somebody is understandable, and also terribly naive.
You're projecting your own feelings towards the person you did the good deed for (I if was them I'd be SO THANKFUL) and yet you have no idea what their background is. Maybe they feel guilty/shamed because now they feel obligated towards you, or they were beaten as children and made to thank their abuser for it. Fact is, you don't know. This is why you either do good expecting nothing in return except the knowledge that YOU KNOW you did the right thing, or do nothing at all. |

YOU did the right thing, just because this bitch could not see or appreciate this, stay the course and do not allow her to sway what your gut told you. We have become a society that is afraid make the right decision based on past conflict from OUR choices, even if we feel that the direction our thinking was 100% correct? This is happening in so many different situations and the results are fucking staggering at this sort of backwards thinking. Fuck this bitch, do not trust someone else to do the right thing, and hopefully you will have the end result that should have been right. I too, do the right thing everyday, and do find it harder and harder everyday, but believe we have to...... |

Sure, you could have grabbed her by the hair, stomped on her face yelling "MAYBE THIS WILL TEACH YOU TO BE A LITTLE GRATEFUL NEXT TIME" while you burned her wallet. But would have it solved her personality issue? Not likely, because people that are that selfish and clueless can rarely be shown the error or their ways. Okay maybe if you had a week, a blow-torch and some pliers you could educate her a bit. Maybe. So continue to do the right thing simply because it feels right to you. |
Review her business on YELP and include this story about the owner. Guarantee she will see it eventually.

I totally forgot to tell you about my wife's story. Late evening after college classes she found 100$ on parking lot. She went back and reported in to the office or security(I don't remember). She refused to leave the money, she left her cell phone number and asked office to call her if someone claim it. I believe they put some text on pin board and when someone claimed 100$ ...they gave her phone # to this person.
Wife asked office to call her, not to give her phone to that person. The problem was that the guy failed to give bills denominations and location(wife didn't tell the office if that was one single 100$ or any combination). And this moron was calling and texting her, harassed her trying to get 100$. Said he will contact police if he wouldn't get his 100$. Left her alone after she said one more call or text and she will call police. Donated money to local school. You can do good things the way you believe is right (and some people will say you did it right way). Just be prepared to deal with rude bitch or scummer. Or worse. Don't get surprised. |

100 assholes on display!
Mind your own business, keep your head down and do your job... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CKOz2Cg1o0...95875624gk.jpg ...and try not to let the assholes bother you too much. :2 cents: :stoned ADG |
When you have to deal with someone like this, just remember how bad it must be to *live inside their head every day*. No need to get back at them, they suffer every day already.

Dont let her reaction change your mood in one way. In other words dont take it personal. She is the one who has to live with herself and YOU did a great thing. Good work mate |
