(USA TODAY) — A Walmart employee who was called to work on her day off left a millionaire after buying a lottery ticket from a California Lottery machine.

The woman, Rebeca Gonzalez, works at a Los Angeles County Walmart and got a last-minute call to come in. Admittedly, she wasn’t looking forward to it, the California Lottery announced in a news release Tuesday.

“It was Labor Day and they only needed me for three hours,” Gonzalez told the lottery. “I wanted to obviously be home with my family because we planned to barbecue.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
