<prompt> Human: I usually get paid X every two weeks. It is directly deposited into my account. Yesterday I was paid slightly more than 2X. This is my first salaried job in the U.S., my first job with direct deposit payments, and my first December at this company. I was told bonuses would be distributed in February, and no one has discussed a bonus with me since I started in June.I assume I was given the extra money in error. Is there any reason for being overpaid like this? Something related to the end of year? That would be great.EDIT: I appreciate everyones feedback. I got an email explaining that they elected to move my bonus from February up to now. I can only guess why this helps them, but it helps me a lot as my income next year will be higher.  <response>: Go talk to payroll and see what happened. This is an issue you will have to resolve sooner or later once someone finds out there was a screw-up someone will definitely find out when the books are balanced.
