We all make mistakes, but this one was a doozie. The sleepy worker’s colleague was actually fired behind the error, which the bank caught and corrected, after he failed to verify the amount. A court ruled he should be reinstated.

We’ve all done it: leaned on a computer keyboard while daydreaming and typed mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Leaning on a key while night-dreaming is another matter, and it almost cost a German bank 222,222,222 euros, or about $293 million.

The error was blamed on a bank clerk who was assigned to transfer the relatively small sum of 62 euros and 40 cents, or just over $80, to the account of a retiree.

Since there was apparently no espresso in the bank’s employee café, the tired soul “fell asleep for an instant, while pushing onto the number 2 key on the keyboard,” according to statements made in the Hessen labor court.

Wunderbar? Hardly. The transfer was sent for 222,222,222 euros. And 22 cents.

The bank said that it handily discovered the mistake and corrected it, according to Agence France Presse, but the case was taken to court by the snoozer’s colleague, who was subsequently fired for not checking the order amount when he was supposed to verify it.

The court ruled that the plaintiff should be reinstated in his job.
