I am tired of Managers and Owners treating Min wage as the Maximum wage they can give.

So I work at a boba shop and recently my coworkers and I did some digging and math and found out that credit card tips we received is not equivalent to what we calculated. dec 10-dec 23: Recorded total tip amount – 1636 Total hours of all workers – 417.85 1636/417.85 is the Credit Card tip/hour =3.9 I worked 34.26 hrs so that multiplied by 3.9 Credit Card tip rate is $133.6 instead I got 73.66 (because the rate they calculated is 2.15) I tried confronting the owners about it but they got mad that we were looking at “confidential information” i.e gross sales and tips. Which they gave us access to so I do not see how it is wrong for me when they gave me access to it.

Years ago when I was young and naive, I was working in a salon. Every service I provided I made 50 percent on. One day I had done a full set of extensions and color on one person. I had performed the service to the customers specifications. She was happy when she left and tipped me well. Service charge was roughly $300. So I made $150 of that service on my check, taxed. The woman changed her mind and came back the next week having clearly messed them up herself (she cut the hair and teased it and put dye on the ends) demanding a refund. My boss obliged then told me I had to pay her back the 300. I told her no, I only recieved half of that cost. She took it out of the next paycheck. The whole 150. I'm like “what the actual hell?” I called…

Title states it. I called this morning, was told to leave my name and number and someone would get back to me. Called back about 4 hours after the first call to see if anything had happened. Got asked my name and number again and for my old employee ID number. HR is now closed for the day and haven't heard nothing back. What are my options? I want to file my taxes before the IRS gives me anxiety and paranoia.

I've been out of work for a few months after leaving a soul sucking shit hole of a company that had slowly destroyed me over 4 years. I saved and took some time for me, but then it was time to get a new job.. I thought I'd found something that sounded relatively easy and chilled out, but I've just had my first day and I think it's probably the worst shift I've ever worked anywhere lmao. And I've had some bad jobs. There was absolutely no professionalism, they expected me to tell them when I would work, to record my own hours so that I “would be properly paid”, they gave me absolutely zero training and expected me to run and close down the store on literally my first day, with a person who had absolutely no idea what they were doing. More than once leaving me alone for…

Even when your son is a school shooter. https://preview.redd.it/0aqo6zniwvg81.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=f0fe0f42225621b376394735a0dddff2c1fb2710
