And it was perfectly legal. In a bizarre and spiteful display, a Georgia auto shop owner paid his former employee’s final wages by dumping 91,500 oil-covered pennies in a massive pile on his driveway. Andreas Flaten, a former manager at A OK Walker Autoworks in Peachtree City, Georgia, was owed $915 after resigning over a childcare dispute. When he contacted the U.S. Department of Labor about the delayed paycheck, the shop’s owner, Miles Walker, responded by delivering the exact amount — in pennies coated in thick automotive grease. The messy pile was left on Flaten’s driveway along with a pay stub containing an expletive. The coins were so heavily greased that they were unusable until individually cleaned, turning a simple paycheck into hours of tedious labor. Flaten later reported that the sheer weight of the pennies even deflated the tires of his wheelbarrow while trying to move them. Walker defended the payment, claiming that as long as the employee received the owed amount, the method didn’t matter. Legally, he was correct: U.S. federal law recognizes coins as legal tender and does not specify that wages must be paid in paper currency or via direct deposit. However, the incident sparked widespread outrage and highlighted gaps in worker protections against retaliatory tactics. While the payment itself was technically legal, the U.S. Department of Labor later sued the shop for retaliation and other labor violations, resulting in a court-ordered settlement requiring Walker to pay nearly $40,000 in back wages and damages to Flaten and other employees. This case became a national example of how employers can technically comply with the law while still engaging in petty and humiliating behavior.
