My salary was supposed to arrive on Friday.
It didnât.
I checked my bank account.
Nothing.
I contacted payroll.
They said:
âYour salary was deposited yesterday.â
I showed them my account.
They pulled up the payment confirmation.
It showed my full salary.
Correct name.
Correct employee number.
Correct bank.
Everything matched.
I called my bank.
They couldnât find the payment.
Payroll said the bank was responsible.
The bank said payroll hadnât sent it.
Neither side would admit there was a problem.
Then I noticed something on the payroll document.
The account number was mine.
But the last four digits were different.
I pointed it out.
Payroll checked their system.
