And finally… This story takes pettiness to a whole new level. It’s not always easy to part with a coworker, but you don’t have to pay them in literal pennies. That’s what happened to a Georgia man whose former employer owed him $915. For Andreas Flaten, getting that final check was like pulling teeth. After leaving his Autoworks job, he had to go to the Georgia Department of Labor to get his final check. His former employer, Miles Walker, retaliated by leaving the final payment in pennies. To be more exact, he left 90,000 oil and grease-covered pennies at the end of Flaten’s driveway. At the top of the filthy pile was an envelope with the final pay stub and an expletive-ridden farewell. |
