She Forgot Her Laptop In The London Tube. LinkedIn Came To The Rescue

Ms Morris had walked halfway up the platform when it dawned upon her that the laptop bag was still on the tube, which had already left for its next station.

On Tuesday, when Daisy Morris, a UK-based social media and digital marketing professional, deboarded the London tube, she didn't realise that she had forgotten her laptop inside the train. Ms Morris had walked halfway up the platform when it dawned upon her that the laptop bag was still on the tube, which had already left for its next station. Ms Morris was upset as she conducted her entire business on the laptop, which she wasn't sure about seeing again. "I said a few explicit words and then cried for a bit, ran to the train conductor who told me he couldn't get through to lost property and gave me a form and told me it might take up to 7 days to hear back," she wrote in a LinkedIn post. Following her interaction with the train conductor, Ms Morris said that she was prepared to leave for Oxford Circus to get a new laptop. While she headed to the platform to catch the next tube to the Central, her phone rang and the man on the other side asked if he was speaking to Daisy Morris. The man -- identified only as Nahid -- then told her that he'd seen Ms Morris' name on the laptop screen and found her LinkedIn profile on Google. He said he had the laptop at Shadwell station, she explained in her post. Expressing gratitude after getting the laptop back, Ms Morris said that humans are incredible when they are nice. "Thank God! I optimised my LinkedIn profile and had good SEO," she said, adding, "Clearly, I need to pay more attention to my surroundings." No, it doesn't end here. Ms Morris dropped Mr Nahid a text, thanking him for returning her laptop. And the message reads like this, "Not many people do what you did and I'd really like to thank you."
