So...I feel really upset/awkward now. Here's the story (chronologically):
1) A former coworker who now lives in another state messaged me on fb--she had 2 items that had gone to "Lost" status (she was being billed the full replacement amount). She asked me to check them in, then back out to her, so that those bills would be gone, and renew her other items. I agreed initially, but kind of questioned whether I should...
2) I went to a meeting where another coworker told us how she renewed a "Lost" item for a patron that had been packed and continued to renew it until the time when the woman said she would be back. This was an example of excellent customer service.
3) I renewed all the items for my former coworker (including the "Lost" ones--I did not check them back in).
4) Yet another coworker informed me that the former coworker had contacted her days ago regarding the exact same scenario. She went to someone else to ask her opinion, and the other person told her to ignore former coworker. The one who talked to me indicated that she thought it would be "illegal" to check materials in that we didn't have in hand (I agree). I said nothing about my interaction with former coworker.
Was I wrong to have done this? I wasn't too worried, especially after hearing from the coworker who did something similar...until the other woman told me she had been approached. I feel used, and am kind of nerve-wracked now.
