Nice surprise

A couple of weeks ago I received a call from Italy. It was payroll telling me they have received a check from the Italian taxes for me. Apparently there was a mistake when my taxes were filed back in 2005 and I’m getting money back.
I was surprised of course and obviously happy. After challenging the lady on the phone, she quickly told me that if the Italian government gives you money, you take it and don’t ask anything.
So I took it.
She mailed me the check and today I brought it to the bank.
Hopefully in 5 days from now I’ll be significantly richer. Just in time for vacation :)
