Several years ago I was cashing my pay check (at the place I worked) and the guy accidently gave me $300 more than I was supposed to get. Once I realized it (less than a minute later), I returned and gave the $300 back. He thanked me and told me he would talk to the owner and that I would be rewarded for my honesty. Two days later I was called up into the owner's office and given...
*drum roll*
...a coupon for $3 off some food.
Sure, I was upset at the time, but I still think I made the right decision.
It doesn't help to dwell on the past. You made the right decision and should focus on your career and maybe become independant or partner up with that guy you mentioned.
