I would never suggest physical action in this case, but I think I may have replied: "You !@#$%, you had me describe it for identification, then kept it...!"

I have a nice look IST, 420 SS, sharp point if anyone needs one. Found in Florida waters.

knife was bought in Calgary - lost in Honduras. It also lost the sheath, i guess both zipties failed - my fault on that one. After she kept it, on my last day at the shop I brought the box+accessories(rubber strap) to give to her.

The look on her face of "oh wow how nice a box too!" was kind of priceless.

SWEET! Very well done. Maybe she'll cut her wet/drysuit with it.

I like that! You showed you have real class, while she showed she has none.

We have a close knit group of divers on my boats. This is, after all, a very small country. One of my guys lost a brand new mask and couldn't find it in teh vis and current. The next day, we were at the same location and one of my divers found it. He was perfectly happy to keep it, but I chose to take it away and say," Hey, fantastic! You found Kevin's mask that he lost here yesterday!" The guy said," Oh no, it is my mask now." To which I replied that he was welcome to keep it but he would need to book a different boat next week, because we all take care of our own.

He gave it up, but was pissy. Until the next week when he dropped his smb and one of our dm's found it and graciously returned it. Then he got it.

I would Never let one of my DM's keep something we all knew was someone else's. That is not acceptable.

WOW!!! I'd have major issues having someone with such a messed up value system on my boat! Where I work, integrity/ethics is the number one job requirement, and unethical behavior will get you fired in about a nanosecond! (I deal with people's 401K retirement accounts, so there is an absloute zero tolerance policy for unethical behavior or actions!)

I dont think that person worked on her boat, he "booked" it
