End of day at work today (I work for a car rental company) I was given a customer pick up sheet. This was what’s considered a “pop fly” customer meaning they didn’t originally have a reservation, but we had a car available so we took their reservation.
I was the one who got sent to pick this customer up as they needed a ride, and as I stated it was very close to the end of the day. Now in this town from 3pm-5pm traffic is an absolute NIGHTMARE, what would be a normal 5-7 minute drive one way at 11am is a 15-17 or more minute drive one way.
Anyways I picked the customer up, and we chatted the whole drive specifically about how awful the traffic was.
As for background on this customer they lived in a very affluent area, they mentioned the business they owned, as well as several properties in other states, basically it’s clear these people aren’t hurting for money.
We got back to the branch and he stopped me and said hold on, reached into his pocket and handed me a cash tip, I usually will get $5-$10 here and there, so I just thanked him and reminded him it was no issue at all!
I clocked off went to my car and went to put the tip I received in my stash of small bills only to realize he handed me a $50 bill.
Should I contact them and let them know they may of handed me the incorrect bill?? Or am I overthinking it? I don’t want to feel like I stole from them or something.
