Month: March 2022

So, I recently left my job about a month ago, that place was toxic, and the restaurant world is not improving any time soon. Here’s the thing: I was a salaried employee, and they left me on the payroll for an additional pay period after I had left. I saw the direct deposit, and first thought was that I had messed up the pay period dates, lucky me. I go about my life for another month, no more deposits and didn’t think anything of it. A couple days ago, the finance guy calls me and says I’ve been overpaid, and they want their money back. I say I’ll check my records, but ultimately give him the brush off. Today, after no further communication, I see they’ve reversed the deposit in my account, which has caused me to overdraft, because almost two grand disappeared without warning. Finance guy won’t return my…

Hi all, my first time posting. I just hit the year mark at my unnamed place of employment and things have been steadily going bad for about 4-5 months. There was a mass exodus of employees about 4 months ago due to the issues that I was previously shielded from due to having good managers (who were removed). To be clear, I've been steadily applying for new jobs. I need to work in order to pay rent/live but I'm definitely getting to the point where I just want to leave because things just keep getting worse (my manager clearly has some mental health issues, gaslights, etc, everyone's mood keeps worsening, I work on average 6 day weeks and the 6th day isn't overtime, etc). So yeah any advice?

Currently make 37.81/hr as a nurse. Applying for a job that has the same pay grade, but in clinical applications. I am currently hourly and my average shift is 9 hours without any deducted breaks (I work through all my meals). The new job would be salary. Average salary for this position in my state is 83,000$. My min pay in my grade is 30 and max is 47.58. I have 11 years experience in nursing, none in clinical applications. Thanks

So here's the situation I find myself in and please don't be shy to tell me I'm in the wrong or that I'm thinking of the situation the wrong way, I want honest opinions. Backstory – I'm in a 3 year mining technology program in the province of Ontario, Canada and it is required to do a 7 week placement in your field of study, some paid some not. In late January I was told I'd be going to a multi-billion dollar mining company as a paid co-op student. But as I'm in the middle of my interview I'm now told a week before starting that it is an un-paid placement, a complete 180° change in what that had to me previously. Even though this company had always paid co-op students (20-30$ an hour, I would've been very happy with minimum wage of 15$) I was the first ever un-paid…

My boss is forcing me to take paid leave even though I requested it to be unpaid. She told me they seldom accept unpaid unless it’s an emergency (how I would plan an emergency? Good question! I have no idea) can someone please tell me if this is legal in the state of Tx
