manager owes me 600 bucks

I'm working a part time job, customer service, and I just looked at my timecard for April and saw that my manager didn't key in my 6 full days of work, which amounts to 600 in total. My job is unionized and I just finished the 6 months probation period. Is it too late to ask for my outstanding pay? Is this something I should escalate? And if so, to who?

Great video for a short crash course on why the tipping paradigm in USA is awful for everyone (except the employers who are laughing all the way to the bank)

Resignation / Counteroffer / Shit show

TL;DR: I am leaving the company. HR/Manager go crazy and try a psychological assault, trying to blame me after refusing a 5% rise when accepting a 2x salary offer. I am printing joke certificates for my colleagues. Firstly: I am not living in the USA. Secondly: long post After different discussions with the HR and my boss, starting on February, I have been stating my dislike for the company with all the benefits I have lost in the past year due to Corporation. I have constantly asking them, what is the company going to do to motivate me to stay longer? And they were just laughing behind my back on this comment (literally). Thirdly: 3 colleagues left the company this year, remaining only myself and one more colleague on Hardware engineering. And we didn't see any rise when taking this much additional work. The day came and I got an…

Who else has cried from work related stress?

I don't think anyone will see this but I need to vent and I can't think of a sub more appropriate. I'd like to commiserate with others I guess. I work in a large warehouse on a small team that is currently understaffed. To keep it short and private; my team is in charge of fulfilling orders that were incomplete due to inventory issues or delays in getting product to the warehouse floor. Because of scheduling and the aforementioned short staff I am often the only person in my position attending to half of the warehouse at the busiest point of the day. I feel like I'm spread so thin and there is too much on my shoulders to handle. There seems to be so little cooperation or understanding in this place. Everyone just wants to make their own job easier. I've always been a meek person but was getting…

“You are only leaving for the money”. Fuck yeah I am.

I got invited at another company because they have an opening in their team and they got word I'm good at my job. Since I have a steady job I gave them a pretty big number if they'd want to have me. Next day they said yes. Better job, better pay, better for my carreer. I told HR and got a meeting with HR and a manager and the board. Asked them if they wanted to match the offer. Nope. They have let all their best workers go in the last two years and I said “you're letting it happen again. Just match the offer so I can stay”. But nope. So, I took the job. Note: some of my co workers make hundreds a month more and they are shit at their job. I even said it to the faces ot HR and the board. Said that they don't…

gotta love the “commitment”

I'm a temp My current contract holder changed the requirements for the position, and in doing so is no longer in need of my services. Contacted my agency let them know. “They never told us this, thanks for letting us know.” They found me a bunch of new better paying offers “Since they aren't contacting us, can you do me a favor and ask them if they will require 2 weeks notice from you.” I decide to play nice, all my immediate co-workers are amazing people who I genuinely made friendships with so I think it would be unfair to them to just flip the doublebird. During the delivery conversation the higher up who alerts me to these changes was very wishy washy constant “we are happy to keep working with you, but the requirements for the job are changing so feel free to look for new jobs.” Lots of…
