Today, at work, an old lady came through my line to buy some groceries. She told me she lost her purse and was a little short. It was busy, so I pulled out my little purse and gave her the money she needed. A few minutes later she returned with my boss, insisting that my purse was hers. FML

That's how old people survive! What they have lost in physical prowess (with men, it's strength; with women, beauty), they have to make up for in craftiness and cunning. The elderly who don't have these skills die off, but the ones that can con young people out of their money are indeed the fittest. Look at Social Security: We can only hope to live long enough to shake down the younger generation as much as we're being shaken now!

Considering you got money out, I would think it would have a driver's license or debit card or a school ID, or hell, a cellphone.

Do you not have some form of ID in that purse to prove it's yours? I understand it's a small purse and you may not have a billfold in it, but what about a "If Lost, Please Return To--" kind of thing?
