So Jumper has a job in a nursing home and she's been working like a dog for almost two months.
When it was payday she got excited waiting for her paycheck to come in the mail. They don't do direct deposit for three pay cycles. Don't ask why. I don't know. So she waited. And waited. And waited. And finally we talked her into talking to somebody about not getting paid. This is Jumper's first job and she doesn't want to make waves.
The manager who talked to her blamed her for putting down the wrong mailing address, which she tells us she didn't do anyway. Then they said they'd have to wait to get the check back before they can issue another one. Ever hear of canceling checks? Guess not. So they are waiting. She sill hasn't been paid. If the clerical error is not corrected for her next check, she won't get the next check either.
I am fuming. She goes in whenever they call her, early, on her day off etc. There has to be something illegal about this. Anyone know what she should do? She is very timid about dealing with people in this manner. I'd call for her...I'm not timid about stuff like that at all lol!...but she's nineteen.
