Recycling Workers Recover Lost Wallet
A Connecticut woman says workers at a recycling station sorted through the contents of a container to find her wallet, even after she was ready to give up. Mary Theresa Pallos said she noticed about an hour after a recent visit to the New London Turnpike transfer station that she had inadvertently tossed her wallet into a recycling container along with her intended items. Pallos approached staff at the station and they immediately began sorting through the recyclables. “Several times I mentioned that they should abort their efforts, but they were persistent and would not give up,” she said. Pallos said the workers found the wallet after about an hour of searching, earning her “surprise and appreciation.” Pallos said she sent a thank you note to superintendent of sanitation Michael Bisi, who said not everyone who loses items in the containers ends up with “happy endings.”
