Former employers always have a fun way of popping back into your life. In this case, it began as a happy accident and ultimately turned into a frustrating nuisance.
This Redditor had notified his former employers that he was still getting paid well after his departure from the company.

Personally, we're of the opinion that the blame for company oversights belongs to no one else besides the company itself.
