Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue

I guess it depends on what kind of work it is but I would let it go.

If it is an hourly type job, def fight for it. If it's an office type job that requires some time getting acquainted with processes and you didn't do any real work for them, just forget about it.

Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue

So I just called......and they said they didn't send me one because I didn't ask for one!!! W T F???

He said because I cut out and left them and didn't specify whether or not to be paid, so they didn't send me a check!! Umm, do I have to tell them whether or not to pay me??!! Should that have even been a question?? I could understand if I got up and left without warning, but at least I called and left a message explaining why I could no longer work there!!!

Well, I told them would they send one now and he said he will put it on the next payroll which is next week. But I still have to wonder what drugs they were smoking to think I wouldn't want to get paid!!

Thanks all for the advice, ladies. I almost didn't want to call, but I thought screw it, I didn't work there for free.

Forgot to add...FH is pissed that I called and asked for my check!!!

Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue - UPDATED

Wait a bit and if they don't send a check, one of your lawyer friends on LIW (ssdbk) will volunteer to write a letter for you, with the ooh so scary lawyer letterhead.

Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue - UPDATED

I think that right there is yet another telling sign of why you didn't need to stay at that job. At least you'll get what you earned, even if it's late.

Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue - UPDATED

Tell your FI to get over it. Nobody should work for free.

You have every right to the paycheck. Makes me wonder if they have been through this before and another person left abruptly and didn't ask for the check...hmmm.

Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue - UPDATED

I think they must have had people leave abruptly because the guy asked me about a dozen times 'Are you sure you're not still entertaining offers or going on other interviews'. I kept telling him yes.

Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue - UPDATED

Your lucky you got out of that silly place. I wonder if they have to ask to get paid every week?!?

Re: NWR: Need advice on a job issue - UPDATED

They are on crack...yeah, I worked there but that's ok, I don't need the money..I'm independently wealthy.
