Job I quit won’t give me my last check unless I “sign paperwork”

I quit over two weeks ago. I only worked there about a month, because it was an overall bad working environment, they never wanted to schedule me inside my availability and the manager would not stop crossing lines between managing and harassment. I sent an email when I quit asking to be contacted via personal email or phone as to when my check will be available for pick up. I have gotten zero word, but a coworker I had there said my check had been sitting at their second location (a place I never once worked and is almost 2 hours out of the way) and if I didn’t sign a paper they would mail it to an unverified address. Unverified because they never once verified with me what address and my mailing is not the same and my physical. They told all their to a coworker, not me. I…

I only worked there about a month, because it was an overall bad working environment, they never wanted to schedule me inside my availability and the manager would not stop crossing lines between managing and harassment.

I sent an email when I quit asking to be contacted via personal email or phone as to when my check will be available for pick up. I have gotten zero word, but a coworker I had there said my check had been sitting at their second location (a place I never once worked and is almost 2 hours out of the way) and if I didn’t sign a paper they would mail it to an unverified address. Unverified because they never once verified with me what address and my mailing is not the same and my physical. They told all their to a coworker, not me.

I don’t want to sign anything. They never issued uniforms or work tools so I do not need to return anything to them. I never signed any paperwork as far as a handbook or contracts while there. What do I do? Do I just take the hit on my money and file with the labor board? I’m actually upset not only is my car payment late because of this but the manager treated me and the two other people hired with me very poorly so I’m already very uncomfortable dealing with them. I don’t even know what address is on my W4 so I don’t know where it’ll be sent or when I’ll see it.

Why even be like this? Why do employers get so disgustingly upset about someone not wanting to work for them? I don’t understand making a mountain out of a molehill, but this is where I thought to ask for a little advice.
Thanks everyone!
