Antiwork

I’m ready to metaphorically burn it down over this final straw of a mistake.

I've worked here for 17 years and have had plenty of jobs before it, and never. NEVER. Have I had an issue with getting a paycheck so egregious as this. Our company sends an email at 4:30 on a Thursday afternoon(!!) to tell us that our paychecks will not be directly deposited tomorrow. Holy. Shit. They are MAILING US a physical paycheck, “expect it in 1-5 days” through USPS, no tracking, and I'm expected to just have money in my account to pay bills, buy food, etc, until it arrives. I. Am. Not. Working. Tomorrow. I. Am. Not. Working. Until. I. Get. My. Money. I'm beyond disgusted that this is happening. And I can already hear my Boomer parents (and management) saying “you've got to think about your responsibility and pull together for the team” No. No I don't. Pay me. /end rant P.S. they mailed the checks on Wednesday…

P.S. they mailed the checks on Wednesday and then waited until this afternoon to tell us.
/Ok now for real I'm done
