Imma try real hard to keep this from turning into venting. But:
-
Apparently that week that I showed up to for pre service before school started, I didn’t get paid for.
-
I wasn’t told this. I was never told I wouldn’t get paid or compensated for showing up to pre service. Just that we were required to.l as long term subs. Which is fucking Bullshit.
-
So without the extra 1k, I only made about 7500 ish this paycheck.
-
So there goes me being able to pay for a beekeeper to come remove the hive. I’ll have to call them tomorrow morning and work something out.
-
I get paid by the day. That means I’m not getting sick days. So I lost three days because I caught covid. That’s about 300-400 I could’ve had for my next paycheck gone.
I just find it bullshit that not only was I expected to show up to pre service training, take on the responsibilities of a teacher, expected to put in EFFORT for the PAST FUCKING MONTH and get $750 is fucking ridiculous. And make no mistake, I fully expect the next check to be fat. Because I never missed a day until covid and payroll is two weeks behind.
I’m fucking stressed. I can’t quit. I can’t just leave because I have things that need to get paid for. My husband is going to be stressed as fuck because we were depending on this paycheck because his first one covers mortgage. I’ve got stuff that is tied up with this paycheck. We needed the extra bump to help us with bills.
This is fucking bullshit. Everything about this is bullshit. At least with a salary I get paid regardless but I get paid DAILY. I should be getting paid for those days I showed up if I was required to.
