Few Good Men

On a lighter side, while preparing for work this morning, I wathced on GMA& news about a taxi driver who whole-heartedly returned a bag full of techie gadget and canadian dollar worth 40,000 Philippine pesos. What's so impressive with the taxi driver, is that even he has financial difficulty, he still returned the bag. It's easier not to be tempted if we don't really needed the money, but for the case of the taxi driver, he needs it to provide his family's needs. But of course, when interviewed on DZBB, he admitted that he also thought of keeping the money. But with the persuasion of his wife, he hurriedly called the radio station and asked to look for the owner of the bag. The owner, in return, gave a few amount in gratitude of the honest and kind taxi driver.

Currently, I am researching for the name of the taxidriver so that we could congratulate her. Correction, not just taxi driver but "THE TAXI DRIVER"! Kudos to you! I would definitely include you in our prayers that God will bless you more that what you have returded, good health to you and your family as well as a happy and peaceful life. (I promise, I'll try to search his name, I may post it ASAP, once I wil have his name)

Remembering other Heroic Act of Simple Worker

• Alexander “Stitch" Latag (not the space alien which known as Lilo's best ohana) , but  a restaurant waiter who also returned a million pesos wrapped in a plastic bag after a customer left it at the resto in Makati. Later, the owner rewarded hin 100,00.. But the best reward is the integrity he gained as one honest and trusted man. Stitch, acknowledged his parents for the way he was raised, that is why it is not that hardfor him do do such heroic act.
• Iluminado Boc, a tricycle driver ( from Tagnilaran ) surendered the money to the city police. It's may be a jackpot for Boc when he foound the money because at that time, his wife is sick and they are about to loose their apartment becauase they were overdue with the rental. But instead, he retuned the monet worth US$ 17,000.
• Herbert Ocampo, the waiter who returned around US$100,000 (at least PhP5 Million), which he found at the coffee shop of the Sulo Hotel, accepts a new job at Duty Free Philippines from Tourism Secretary Richard Gordon
• Gilbert Tindungan (Airport Security Guard ) and William Bell ( Bureau of Immigration Intelligence Officer Paterno ), returned a laptop computer worth around PhP125,000 and US$2,700 accidentally left by a balikbayan from the USA. They would have split the money and sold the laptop; but they did what they have to.
• Florita Mondoyo, a janitress at the Manila Domestic Airport, returned an envelope containing US$10,000, which she found at the passenger pre-boarding area while cleaning. 
• Joseph Navarro, a resort staff  handed back more than US$1,000 bills unknowingly dropped by balikbayan's sister-in-law.
• Dominic Jimenez and Gerry Soriano, military men returned a bag containing PhP 30,000 cash, which they found at the NAIA Terminal-2 northwing arrival area.
