Something we don't know... about you!

[ahinton]

Yes M'lud.

I am no lord, let alone 'lud but, more importantly, does your statement here mean that you now agree that no money was exchanged between you and K in respect of advice of any kind on a a pre-agreed contractual basis (as is indeed suggested by the far more random and inexplicable arrivals of sums into her bank account of which she wrote)?

Next witness.

Since the only people involved in this are Karli, you (if indeed you are involved), those responsible for handling her bank account and whoever may have made the relevant payments into that account, the paucity of - and indeed need for - any further witnesses should be pretty obvious, methinks.

But K - no one has sought to put you on trial here! It seems only to be Thal's reference to "next witness" that has even suggested such a notion!

Well, I admit that I am, of course, also very curious about how long it would actually go on for.  I had taught in the Spring term of last year, too, so it might continue on through Spring if I don't say anything ... don't you find it a fun(ny) experiment ?  hee hee.

Okay, but, just any case there is any lingering question, I am *not* keeping the money  .

[Bob]

Earn interest on it until they request it back.

[go12_3]

I have noticed that banks are making more mistakes, even in my account an additional $5.00
got in there, and how was I to explain that scenario to the bank?  I mean, everything is
done digitally anyhow.  Mistakes do occur.  So I waited until my next statement appeared and the $5.00 was still intact.  I figured, if my bank happened to detect the error, then it would have corrected it in my account.  Seeing that they didn't, then it's okay.  I don't have a record on where that $5.00 came from anyhow.    

[m19834]

Well, the saga of the money being dropped into my account is nearly at a close, I believe, though of course I am slightly annoyed.  I called on Monday morning to let them know and at first the woman was informing me that the contract had passed through all of the appropriate people and that I was indeed on contract for not one, but two courses (though, I only got paid for one ... they were trying to rip me off   !!).  Then I informed her (again) that I had indeed NOT agreed to teach, that I am not teaching, and that I shouldn't have been paid !  She recoiled a bit in silence and realized they had made a mistake.

And, apparently the only way to rectify it is by me writing a check to them.  So, I had to go to the store to get stamps (because we hardly *ever* mail anything) and I have to use one of my last checks to write to them.  I kept putting that off this last week and forgetting about it, and of course, Friday rolls around and I get a phone call from the payroll office from a woman who is part thug, talking to me in a tone like she is a toughy and that I am part criminal and that perhaps I am trying to actually steal the money !?  I then reminded her that it was I whom had informed them of the mistake in the first place and so I obviously knew that the money shouldn't be in my account and wasn't planning to keep it, and that I felt they should be able to take it out themselves since it was in fact their mistake !  haha.  

Of course, I got a little nervous because of her tone of voice until I remembered that it wasn't MY fault !

But, in my annoyed state, I have now put the check in the envelope and am ready to drop it into the mailbox, but I have written on the envelope that "On principle, I should not have had to spend my own time and money to pay for your mistake" haha ... and I can't decide whether to actually send it like that or not ... hee hee.  I have a feeling that I will though.  I know it's not a lot of money for me to send it, maybe about a dollar for just the thing, but that means on principle, I am actually PAYING for something that was completely not my fault, AND I was honest with them about it even though they would have merrily continued on that path, seemingly never knowing what had happened.

Oh well.

What you should have done was to deduct a few dollars for your time and trouble.

Then you would have felt less annoyed and you would have messed up their accounts.

Many of us have probably been deluged with scam spam emails about wins on lotteries that one has never entered and relatives of people in certain countries wanting to offer you a cut of very large sums, in all cases in order to obtain bank details and other such sensitive information. Well, a few years ago, my bank called me to ask if I wanted the recent deposit into my current account to be placed temporarily on the money markets pending my investment decision. I knew not of what they were talking, so they got a little suspicious and asked if I was aware of a substantial sum having been deposited there the previous day, to which my answer was (I don't know what you mean by "substantial", but if you mean more than a hundred pounds, the answer is no". At that point, seeing that it was my account, the bank advised me that an amount of - well, I cannot now recall the precise sum but it was a little over three quarters of a million pounds - had been deposited there and they could not identify its source as it had been a cash payment. I then tried to get back up off the floor and said "what, if anything, can I do or do you want me to do?" They said "nothing", but if you believe that this sum was not destined for your account, we will take note of that and investigate it as far as possible. They also confirmed that, should its source and/or intended destination not be ascertained after six months, it may be that I would be allowed to keep it. What can one say to that? Three weeks later, the error was indeed identified and the money removed from my account with my permission. Apparently, it had been a payer error rather than a bank mistake. They let me keep the interest, however.

I was actually tempted to open the envelope back up and write another check after I read your post, haha.  But then, I imagined them calling me at some point over the few dollars, and them asking me to write *another* check.  I could write that one for a dollar, mail it, have them call me again about owing them a couple of dollars, write them a check for another dollar and keep on going until I end up using a bunch of checks and envelopes and stamps and I am writing them a check for a fraction of 1 cent.  ahhhh ... it's somehow satisfying to have at least written that out and imagined it  .  No doubt I would end up in jail somehow though.

I cannot now recall the precise sum but it was a little over three quarters of a million pounds - had been deposited there and they could not identify its source as it had been a cash payment.

Wow !  That's pretty crazy !!  I'm glad you got to keep the interest at least .  

That makes me think that I could've had the University call the bank and then the bank could've called me and asked my permission to remove the money that had been deposited.  I bet that would've worked and then the University would have had to have done the footwork and not me !!  hmph.  But, really, I got over being annoyed and actually whited out the red-pen message I had put on the envelope before I sent it into the mailbox  .  As far as I know, the saga is over and I guess I see where that particular curiosity led me !

[Bob]

If they can put money in, they can take it back out, esp considering it's an error.  I've had that happen.  

I would let the money sit there and see how long it take them to figure it out.  It's some amusement then, possibly interest, but no work on my part.

What you really should do -- Cut them off from access to your bank account.  Nothing in or out.  Someone at the organization might realize the mistake and directly withdraw the money from your account and then they'll cash your check too.  After I've left jobs, I've called the bank to cut that employer off from access to my account. 

I did have something similar happen once.  I got paid extra, a check just showed up one day.  When I called about it, the secretary b**** at me about it -- Apparently it was my fault I was being paid and not their error.  So I kept it.  It was under $50.  Not a big deal.  I consider it gets balanced out by the times I get screwed out of money.  There's about $50 moving around +/- for or against me.  The ones in my favor I remember when I realize the ones that aren't.

Talking about money I once almost won 1st division lotto. In Australia Saturday Lotto you need to get 6 numbers selected from 1-45. The draw has 6 numbers and 2 sups, I got 5 numbers and 1 sup Still the 10+ grand came in handy, if I hit the last number I would have got over 1 million.

Talking about lotto, one of my close friends mothers brother won lotto and gave each of his immediate family members about $200,000. 2 years later his uncle became bankrupt and asked for the money back, my mates mum gave the money back!!!!! what!!!!! lol

This is an example of the increasing superficiallity and shallowness that is rampand in current society. Of course, you're free to avoid anything that might take a dangerous amount of reading, let alone thinking, but it's your loss, really. But unfortunately the alarmingly increasing level of general desinterest of anything and everything needing the application of a braincell and the increasing demand to be entertained (rather than take the trouble of entertaining oneself) on an increasingly depraved level coupled with the shrinking of the average attention span to below that of a new born chicken is having its devesating effect.
I trust you don't like music that is more than 7 minutes (or even bars) long?

Taking out Alistair specifically here while there are any number of posts over 7 sentences long posted by others (many if not most of rather less interest) could be called offensive!

Indeed so. I try to read books that are considerably above the average level of Forum posts and also try to find newspapers that are not too abismally below them...

You forgot "no offense". 

[ahinton]

people with half the brain should be able to get the fact right: books and newspaper are NOT exactly forum posts.

Whilst I do not recall suggesting that they are (any more than I suggested that you have half a brain), this fact hardly undermines, let alone invalidates, the point as made.

oh and btw, did you even read my succeeding post?

The full answer to that question is that I did indeed do so and, as I did not notice it succeeding, I felt that it did not merit comment, thereby saving you at least one sentence to have to read or decide against reading.

To return to the matter which you and liordavid have raised, however, there is a limit to the number of characters available on some fora (including this one) that can be included in any one post (I cannot recall what it is on this one, but that's neither here nor there, really). However, whilst the number of characters and/or the word count of any one post is obviously indicative of its length, the lengths of individual sentences within it are another matter and I suspect that you and possibly also liordavid may have similar problems with reading some posts with but a single sentence if that sentence length happens not to meet your own personal criteria for such things. That's just too bad, however, for one important fact of which you appear to take insufficient recognition is that members' posts here are made for other readers besides you, liordavid and those others (if any) who may happen to share your views on modes of expression in English. That is your prerogative, of course, but while you may therefore desist from reading certain posts, others will not.
