Does it pay to be honest? Today, I received an extra hundred dollars on my paycheque. It looks like negative deductions on my pay stub for my benefit contributions. I have emailed my HR department to find out in case they figure they made a mistake and take it off my next pay. I'm a pretty budget strict type person so that would not be good for me.

Do you think its good to be honest? Or should you wait and see if they notice and take the hundred dollars? Maybe they'll reward me the hundred dollars for being honest? A girl can hope, can't she?

It DOES pay to be honest... apparently my employer has been charging me for benefit premiums as though I was paying for spousal contributions, so that extra money is mine! That means my pay will increase next pay too!! Yay for Fridays!
