The other day while I was sitting down at one of the benches waiting for the bus back home at the Interchange, a guy accidentally knocked over a can of about 50% unfinished drink (a cup was beside the can) with his big harvest sack.
Both of us suddenly looked at each other and we laughed as he looked at me and said "uh-oh".
I told him not to worry as I hand him a packet of tissue. After clearing the mess, I saw him digging frantically over his coin pouch and placed $1.40 below the spilled can.
Looking at him with all the question marks over my head; he smiled and said there must be a reason for a cup, filled with ice, a straw and some residue of the drink beside the can. Someone (bus driver, interchange security guard, etc) must be enjoying his drink on the bench and probably left for a few minutes for some sudden business. And him, by spilling the unfinished drink accidentally caused the person to waste his/her hard earned money over an accident cause by another party.
I later asked, what if it's just some left-over drink waiting for the cleaner to clear up and your money was not picked up by the owner to your intention? He just smiled and said, "at least my conscience's clear".
Interesting thinking, another lesson learned. =)
