Check out some social media users comments on the tweet:

@XabiWoods wrote:

“Looking at that "Prestige College" makes me think it's the same difference really, they were going to pick it up and you were going to have to come back and make the payment anyways, it's not like you bought food at some random grocery store where they'll never see you again.”

@___Mthembu asked:

“You reading this comment of mine right now, were you gonna go back?”

@Yeyethu_Baballo commented:

“It's a school, you literally had to pay because they would've picked it up. It's not like a teller at a supermarket where they'd have to cover the difference.”

@Deejay32362739 said:

“You just saved someone's job. She was going to pay the difference and get suspended and finally fired for such.”

“My friend once did this when she was a cashier. They tracked and called the client, and the client said it wasn't her fault they were incompetent. The money was deducted from her salary.”

@muimbi_princem commented:

“You did very well. You just saved someone's job. And also maybe they will pick it up later then run the cameras and bank transaction and called you over again. But bravo. That's being a human.”
