Hi Guys,
Long story short, I asked to borrow a memory card reader off a guy who sits opposite me and he said no problems, I said I'd get it back to him within a couple of weeks - it's cheap tacky thing, cost him like £2
Then a week ago, I thought I'd lost it I explained this to him and offered him either the cash or to order one, he asked me to order one, which I have.
Then on Monday I found it but forgot to bring it in (turns out it was in the car) and on Tuesday the car was taken away with his card reader in it to have work done. I haven't seen the car since - I've explained this to him and said I'll get it for him when I get the car back.
Now to today - my new contract phone arrives so I get it out, have a play and stick it on charge (it's a SE K850i) - now the guy next to the person who I borrowed the reader from asks to look at it, so I said sure, gave it to him, still attached to the charger, then when he says "nice phone" goes to hand it back, the guy who I borrowed the reader from snatches it, rips the charger out and the convo goes like this:
Me: "err..Will..wtf are you doing?"
Him: "you've got my reader, I've got your phone, I get the reader back, you get the phone back
Me: "I've already explained about the reader"
Him: "Yeah I know, you've got something of value of mine, now I have something of similar value to yours"
Me: "LOL! similar value? the reader is worth £2, the phone is insured for £450, wheres the similar value?"
Him: "I don't need to explain myself get the reader back"
I didn't argue back because I was getting a temper on by now and people were beginning to look, I then calmly explained to him that if I don't get the phone back by 3, I'm going to esculate it to his manager who will get the phone back. I also happen to be good mates with his manager
I'm not showing it, but it's really really annoying me, he performed theft right infront of me and I've got 3 eye witnesses as well. I can't believe the amount of fuss he is kicking up over a damn memory card reader though, he's acting like a fat 5 year old who's been told he can't have his 3rd helping of cadburys!!!!!
grrr.....
