Co-op worker mistakenly paid £1m
A supermarket employee who alerted bosses when he was mistakenly paid more than £1m has been rewarded with a crate of beer.
Stephen Foster, who works at the Co-op's distribution centre in Birtley, Gateshead, was alerted to the error on his December payslip by his girlfriend.
He had been paid £1.4m, or £800,000 after deductions.
The Co-op said it received the money back within 12 hours and praised Mr Foster's "exemplary behaviour".
Bah humbug! Scrooge Co-op! They only gave him a crate of beer?
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
