The exclusive hotel, One Aldwych seems to have dropped a bit of a clanger recently when it paid one of its dishwashers, £8,238.97 for his June salary- his usual weekly pay packet brought in around £250.
Unsurprisingly our Eastern European entrepreneur failed to turn up to work when he discovered his good fortune and despite the hotel issuing a High Court writ against their former employee to repay the money, including accrued interest.
Up until that point I may have been slightly sympathetic to the hotel's request in what was obviously an error on some one's behalf.
However, with the profits they must make to then make such a petty claim to claw back a few quid in interest makes me hope that our man on the run (apparently already back in Eastern Europe) gets away with it.
