First take: No first take yet. Story pressure only.
Three flights. Two people.
Paige said she found it first.
For a free table.
Spotting it counted, she said.
And cleaned most of it.
Finder, carrier, cleaner.
Free table, finder fee, or split the work?
Check the details.
Curb find
The table was outside with no listed price, brand, or owner attached.
Shared carry
Jordan and Paige both carried it up the stairs and both planned where it could go.
Paige's take
Finding a useful free item saved Jordan money, so she thinks that effort counts.
Open the receipts
- The table was free. Jordan and Paige found the table sitting by the curb with no one around.That could actually work.
- They carried it together. The table was awkward enough that neither of them could have carried it alone.
- Jordan cleaned it up. Jordan cleaned the dust off while Paige reminded him that she had spotted it.Technically I found it.
- Then she sent a price. Later, Paige sent Jordan a request for the table if he wanted to keep it.
- Paige called it a finder fee. Paige said finding the table had value, even if the curb price was zero.I found the deal.
- Jordan carried half. Jordan said Paige could not turn a free object into a sale after they both did the work.Free means free.
- Everyone had a take. Some friends thought Paige deserved something. Others thought shared labor mattered more.
- Where do you stand? The table cost nothing on the curb, but keeping it suddenly had a price.
