superior complex, sorry your boss is a condescending dick


Yeah, me too. Because how dare I ask for the money I worked hard for??
Does he have a point though? Or is he using you as an example

Are you the only black person?


My job is all Black and no, there is no point to make. I've been late by a minute or two...never more than that and my job is in a high traffic area, so coming to and from is hell on Earth, but that doesn't justify not paying me in over a month.

That's like saying "Do you deserve to be paid?"
Over a month? Girl that's a lawsuit

I thought it was a week or two


I'm about to fuck him up when I get back on Monday. Talking about I don't need to address him directly. Bitch, I will fuck you up for playing with my money. He better get his dick out of his ass.

he kept saying that you should go to your direct supervisor - have you done this and what did he say ? so the chain of command thing says to me that if I do not get a response/appropriate response from the direct supervisor then you go to the next higher one up

yeah, something is not right here - what are your co-workers saying ? is this across the board - it wasn't necessary that he bring stuff up like that that didn't have anything to do with the issue you were presenting which was "where is the paycheck" - it doesn't take all that to go to direct deposit FFS - something else is going on here

Yes, I talked to her about the situation. She suggested that I tell him my situation since she would be out of the office and told me that he would understand.

I was not expecting him to respond like this and that chain of command shit goes out of the window because my hand book that I signed when I was hired states that we have an open door policy. I bruised his ego and he was on a power trip. Stupid ass motherfucker.

I only read the first page, but as a lifelong business owner I'll say this:

I would recommend that you look for another job, immediately. Late pay is an obvious sign that they're about to go out of business, so don't be shocked when your pay checks start bouncing.

Based on the lunch schedule, etc, the CEO is trying to punish you for having the audacity to ask for your money. I suspect that he's struggling with the payroll already, so he's trying to make everyone else feel inferior to match.

And if he's right that you're coming in late, taking long lunches, etc, then those are signs that you're not happy with your job, anyway.

So in any case, all signs point to you finding a new job. And I'd recommend doing it sooner rather than later.

I'm already on it! I'm working on my complaint to the EEOC and DOL. This was completely unnecessary, but I'm gonna get what's mine come hell or high water.

Tell him exactly that. Seen as you're not being paid for the work you do, you should be able to take lunch breaks all day long. I'd send him that and start looking for a new job.

Also, don't you have anyone to speak for you in legal matters like these? Unless the company is filing for bankrupcy this type of mafia management should be illegal.. What's their excuse?

How do you even pay rent on time if you don't know whether or not you'll recieve a paycheck from one month to the next?

EEOC will likely pass on this, unless you get fired, and you suspect that it is in retaliation for requesting your advance.

I was a contract EEOC Investigator for many years, and unless there is discrimination, your case will not be looked into. DoL will definitely look into it though.

This ish is why I won't work for a small business again. SO much bullshit in the small business world. A lot of small business owners are just assholes who can't work well with others, despise authority so they do their OWN business so nobody can boss THEM around.

In turn, you get a lot of "get rich quick" fucknuts who break all sorts of laws either out of ignorance or no fucks to give because they know employees won't do shit and the pockets aren't as deep as a corporation so lawsuits aren't as "appealing" in some instances.

Corporations aren't innocent either, but they're far more conscious of following the letter of the law because of the possibility of lawsuits due to those deeper pockets. They're bigger targets for the shark attorneys.

OMG - I'd start looking for a new job. But how did this guy get involved if you sent the request to YOUR direct manager? I must have missed something.

For a CEO he doesn't write very well, and doesn't seem very educated with sentence structure like that.

It sounds like you've had a change in payroll policy, so the change no doubt was communicated to all employee's. You needed to make a change in your spending/budgeting habits to compensate for that change, so technically this isn't the companies problem.

As I said, I may have missed something as I read the reply very quickly and given the way it was written it was hard to understand. If they intentionally did not pay you on time, you have a company that is going under, so beware. If they go out of business, payroll will be lower tier in terms of claims against the business.

Creditors will be 1st, then suppliers.
A change in payroll should be in writing, not a verbal statement. That's just bad business. Secondly, he told us on payday that we wouldn't be getting paid until September 1st which is 2 ADDITIONAL weeks therefore going a whole month without pay. I don't know about my coworkers, but I can't go that long without being paid and I shole don't work for free.

I know he's going under because we've been closing the office for days on end due to "internal issues" that he won't admit that are unfixable. Yesterday was our (I and my coworkers) third time being told to go back home and I'm guaranteed that it'll keep happening.
