Is it a substantial amount? What kind of job position are you in? Being honest about this could help you in the long term within the company. Just sayin’. ---

I am paid for exactly the amount of work I do… That is why I am here all of the time. My checks are always different, so if my company makes a mistake on one check, it will just affect my next check. Give it back, otherwise it is stealing from the company. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/work-overpaid-me/59545.md?page=2)
