So this morning on my way to work I went to the pharmacy for a box of Nurofen Plus, paid £7.29 for them and put the change into the pocket on my jeans at the front.

I was in our office upstairs in a big industrial building and realised the £10 note was no longer there, I looked around my desk thinking it may have fell to the floor but nothing around my. My Manager said to go and check my car as it may have fell out whilst I was driving, or I'd been short changed and hadn't realised, or indeed I'd thrown the £10 note in the bin outside the pharmacy with the packaging. On the way out I asked the girls on reception if anyone had handed it in, nothing.

So I went to the car and it wasn't there, came back inside, up the stairs, through a door and I kicked something in the floor. In the empty corridor on a plain blue carpet there it was, I'd kicked the £10 note and nearly slipped on it! It definitely wasn't there when I went out, I'd have seen it and I asked my Manager if anyone had put it there feeling sorry for me, but nope.

AIBU to think that is a totally weird series of events?!

Were you wearing jeans? The new notes are so slippy they don't seem to stay in most pockets any longer!
I reckon your note worked it's way out, down your leg and into the corridor.

I do hope that whatever necessetated the purchase of nurofen is better now! christ, £7+ per pack, that's why I stick to paracetamol and ibuprofen

I think it's clear for all to see - apart from the hard of reading - that Lweji was joking. Hence the ironic winking face

The level of dense on this thread is quite high

No need for insults Tansy

I suspect someone swiped it and then put it there for you to find after they heard you talking about it.

Be careful with codeine, it's hugely addictive.
