I helped my friend A do a favor for his friend B. Later, B sent to me (via A) a check which was unexpected and way way too much for the work I did. I don't feel right accepting B's money. How would you handle this?
I've known A for decades and he lives nearby. He has a friend B who used to live here but now lives several states away. I've met B but we're not close.
B left behind a bunch of stuff in storage. A couple of weeks ago, B needed to move his stuff to a new storage location but was unable to fly in, so he asked A to do it. A asked me to lend a hand, and I said sure, happy to help (there was no talk of money). It ended up taking most of a day, but the work was easy even with masks on; only a couple of things needed two persons to lift.
So that was fine. Then a week later, A brings me a check from B for US$500(!). The idea of cashing the check makes me uncomfortable, though I'm not sure why. I guess I'm wondering how other people might feel in this situation and what they might do. |
