  据新闻网站江苏网报道,宝应汽车运输总公司大约200名员工都领了几袋子硬币回去,其中大多是1元的。

  江苏一公交公司员工发工资拎回一袋硬币
  That left managers pondering 2 how to deal with all the cash. Rather than lug 3 it all to the bank to be deposited 4, they decided 5 to offload coins worth about 200,000 yuan ($30,000) onto their employees as wages.
  这就使得经理们思考如何处理这些硬币。最终他们决定不去银行兑换,而是将价值20万元(约3万美元)的硬币作为工资发给员工。

  不过这个决定却让很多员工高兴不起来。一位司机说道:“没错,这也是钱,但是拎着一大袋沉重的硬币,花起来不太方便啊!”
