Company back-paid me for 50 hours instead of $50.

I was owed $50 retro pay by my company. They basically kept blowing me off for months on it, carrot-on-stick status. It really put a strain in our relationship that never went away. $50 is fiddlesticks. It was the principle of the thing, that we had an agreement, that I had done things I wasn’t paid for, that fair was fair.

This was about six weeks (three pay periods) ago and nobody has said anything to me and I haven’t said anything to anybody. I haven’t spent it. I guess I’m wondering what the company can…

I guess I’m wondering what the company can do if they discover their mistake and what my options might be. I’m certainly not in a rush to do any favors for these manipulative fucks.

Thanks for your input.
