tipptruck1 Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I work part time while iam going to school. I like the job and the people I work with. Well I have been there a few weeks and it going good. But now the bad part. It took almost 5 weeks to get my first check. They didn't know I didn't get it. So I go to the boss and told him about it. So he had me talk to the person that cuts the checks. She sent it to a employent angecy. Iam thinking that will happen. Now this last friday was pay day every one got a check but me. I was going to get a check today but the person that gives the checks wasn't there today. Iam getting sick of all this running around. To make it worst my boss owns the place and he dosn't know what happend. So what do you guys think I should do? Quote
frogtog Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 You need to sit down with the owner and tell him you need your money. Just tell him to go ahead and write you a check now. If he owns the Co. he can do it. If he won't write it I would'nt waste no time calling your State Labor Board and report him. What he is doing is against the law. Don't be scared of him just because he's the boss. Give a time frame and tell him if you don't have your pay by 12 oclock you are going to take what legal means nessecery to get your pay. Then if that don't work, Kick the SOB's a**. I hate people like that. The world is full of crooks like that. Good luck and the butt kicking I was just joking about. Quote
Super User Root beer Posted July 11, 2007 Super User Posted July 11, 2007 . Good luck and the butt kicking I was just joking about. Heck, I would kick his butt anyway. Serisouly man do what frogtog says, I would be real mad. Even if you quit you can sue company get all money you earn perhap more then that. . But that not alway case, but you'll get money you earn plus damage they cause you. Like if you was late on a bill or something for that reason they could give you more money. ;D I dont get mad, I get even. Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted July 11, 2007 Super User Posted July 11, 2007 Tip... If I were you, I would stay inside. I wouldnt drive, I wouldnt go near machinery, I would stay away from windows in a thunderstorm and I would use blunt utensils to eat with.... Honestly, I think you may have the absolute worst luck of any human being on the face of the planet. Good luck in your endeavors. You are going to need it. Wayne Quote

Super User Root beer Posted July 12, 2007 Super User Posted July 12, 2007 If I didnt get my paycheck I wouldn't wait until next week I'd demand it now. So what the situation now? Quote

bassbob08 Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 REPORT HIM NOW,dont take that crapppp from him get you money > > > > > Quote
flyphisher # Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 This sounds like Milton in the movie "Office Space." Are you sure you are actually employed there, some classless, a-hole people will let you go and not tell you, let you figure it out on your own so you cant get unemployment..... If not it Sounds to me like you are WHINING AS USUAL , this time about your EMPLOYERS POLICY, you are not being picked on. It sucks to have to wait 2 weeks most places for your check anyway, but if you go to work somewhere that HOLDS YOUR FIRST CHECK, YOU HAVE TO WORK A MONTH BEFORE YOU GET PAID. It sucks but alot of companies do that now. If you were given a company handbook or something similar, everything you need to know is probably in there, before you start reporting people etc.... Considering circumstances even if its the way they do payroll, i dont see being at this job very long. Sounds like alot has been said to boss and coworkers, you are the new guy for one, and now not very well liked there now... Its only gonna get worse. Quote
Big T Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 I would definately look for another job, but in the meant time I would demand my money and turn him in to the laborboard. It is easy for me or anyone else to tell you to kick his you know what or to quite, stay home, etc. But that does not pay the bills when you need a job, plus you have to do what is in your best interest. However what your boss is doing is wrong and highly illegal. Quote
