    Not a chance.

    I would keep it

    It is compensation, as others have said, it is YOU that waited. I wouldn't even think to question whether I should keep it or not ..I just automatically would.

    Pretty savvy of you, if you ask me.
    The opposite of what you know...is also true

    This happened to me, and as I travel in work time I claimed the extra hours off of work. The compensation went to work - no dilemma as the extra hours of time off in lieu were more valuable to me.


    Actually I didn't claim the compensation myself - just handed tickets and details over to our administrator and pointed out she could claim compensation if work wanted to. A cheque came with my name on, but that was easy enough to sort out.
    But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,
    Had the whole of their cash in his care.

  • You were inconvenienced, not your employer. The compensation is for you.
