The $20,000 good deed: Walmart employee making only $9 an hour RETURNS envelope full of cash to shopper after it fell out of her purse
A Walmart employee making only $9 has returned an envelope containing $20,000 in cash, saying that his conscience simply wouldn’t allow him to keep the money. Bismark Mensah, an immigrant from Ghana who works at a Seattle-area Walmart, found an envelope stashed in a shopping cart after it fell out of a shopper’s purse. Rather than pocket the money, Mr Mensah grabbed the envelope, ran after the woman, and returned it to her, causing her to tear up with joy. Hailed as a hero: Bismark Mensah, pictured April 4, who works at a Walmart in Washington, will be honored for his quick work in returning an envelope stuffed with cash to the customers who had accidentally left it in a shopping cart The Seattle Times, which first reported the encouraging story, also recounted how Mr Mensah, 32, was honored for his act as a Good Samaritan. He was given the ‘Integrity in Action’ award by the big box chain, and was presented with a plaque with his name on it for his heroic actions last October. Th
