From the Daily Mail
The shopping centre prank is the latest in a string of NAB stunts. Another experiment involved the bank building a coffee stand on a busy Melbourne street, where the barista deliberately gave all customers $5 too much in change for their coffees.
Every single person immediately returned the money.
The barista then changed tactics and began insulting customers - asking one lactose-intolerant woman when she ‘decided she had that condition’, and telling a smartly dressed young man that he would no longer fit into his suit if he kept drinking moccas.
Despite the obnoxious comments 91 per cent STILL returned the extra change.
I find it completely normal and typical of a bank to do this, they do have all our money!
ReplyDeleteThis merely reflects humanity's honest grasp of reality.
In the end the banks will win!
I forgot to say;
ReplyDeleteKindness, seen by a human, is almost always regarded as a kind of weakness in another human.
Such IS the life of all humans.
Never sell yourself too cheap. Most people have a price and it is more than $5.

I'm curious if the result would have been the same if they did the experiment in Sydney...
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean Diogenes didn't need that lamp after all?
