Dale remained in his office.
My final paycheck was supposed to be $915 after deductions.
But when I checked my bank account that afternoon, nothing had arrived.
At four o’clock, I heard a pickup truck enter my driveway.
It was Dale.
I stepped outside just as he lifted a heavy bucket from the truck.
Then he tipped it over.
Thousands of pennies spilled across the gravel.
He emptied another bucket.
And another.
