Let me get this straight. You knew the bank made an error and deposited money that did not belong to you and you did not say anything and even spent some of it knowing it wasn't your money? And you question why they had a trust issue? Sorry, the no harm no foul defense does not work in the employment world. You will be lucky if you qualify for unemployment benefits under this scenario.
