The couple spent a weekend in Atlantic City in November and came home with gross gambling winnings of $2,000.
Ryan received $2,000 cash for reaching 10 years of continuous service at DI.
Ryan was hit and injured by a drunk driver while crossing a street at a crosswalk. He was unable to work for a month. He received $7,600 from his disability insurance. DI paid the premiums for Ryan, but it reported the amount of the premiums as compensation to Ryan on his year-end W-2.
