A Is For Asshole

What makes a person an asshole? 

It's basically someone who's a jerk but manages to take it a level or three beyond merely being a jerk.

An asshole is a person not merely content with being selfish and obnoxious and a bully but seeks ultimate levels of those qualities.  

An asshole is a person who is all those things naturally but also works at it. 

Or we can save ourselves the trouble of defining what it means to be an asshole and go for a more succinct definition: 

An asshole is Miles Walker.  

Miles Walker is the owner and proprietor of A OK Walker Autoworks in Fayetteville, Georgia.  Apparently he owed a former employee named Andreas Flaten a final pay check of approximately $915.15. 

Miles Walker made payment of the $915.5 to Andreas Flaten. 

In pennies.  That's right, 91,515 pennies weighing a total of 504 pounds. 

That's an asshole move right there.

But Miles Walker is not done. 

The 91,515 pennies were covered in grease. 

I'm pretty sure Coin Star will not take those coins in that condition. 

Yes sir! That's some class A asshole there! 

But wait! 

Miles Walker is still not done. 

The 91,515  grease covered pennies came attached with a note: 

"Fuck you!" 

Classic depths of asshole achieved! 


But not surprising. The reason 
Andreas Flaten is a former employee is that his time on the job meant being the constant target of bullying and abuse from Miles Walker.

Other former employees of A OK Walker Autoworks tell of a toxic work environment.

But perhaps we are not being fair to Miles Walker. 

Let's hear his side of the story. 

Miles Walker wants it to be clear he paid Flaten in U.S. currency.  But when he was asked about the pennies  ...covered in grease ...with the fuck you note, Miles Walker had this to say.

“I don’t know if I did that or not. I don’t really remember. It doesn’t matter; he got paid, that’s all that matters. He’s a fucking weenie for even bringing it up.” 

Yep, he said "I don’t know if I did that or not."  

A 504 pound pile of 91,515 grease covered pennies with a "Fuck You!" note? 

And he said "I don’t really remember." 

Yes sir, "asshole" defined is Miles Walker.
