A Pleasant Surprise Today

I stayed in this hotel several weeks ago. I had removed my diamond earring which was a gift from a lady, and laid it on the sink while I showered. After I had checked out of the hotel and was several hundred miles away I realized that I had forgotten my earring.
The last time I stayed here, a few weeks ago, I asked the lady working the desk if it had by chance been turned in by housekeeping. She said that it hadn't. Oh well.
When I checked in here today a different lady (the last one was new) was working the desk. She knew me from the many times I have stayed here and said that she had something for me. She took a small plastic bag from the desk drawer and handed it to me. It had my name on it. It contained my earring. Housekeeping had indeed turned it in and she had put it away for me and it was just bad luck that she hadn't been working the desk on my last stay.
It was a very pleasant surprise, and very nice of her to make a point of keeping it safe for me. I am also impressed that housekeeping was honest enough to turn it in.
