I quit Mcdonlads after 10 months because of management issues amongst other things. I got my final paycheck through direct deposit, so that just left my 4% cheque (physical paper) for me to pick up. I loved my coworkers so much but god did I loathe the managers. As I gave in my two weeks, I made it a point to tell a manager the problems that we all had with them (laziness, overworking high schoolers, missing $ from paychecks, illegal scheduling, medical notes not being taken seriously, sexual harassment, etc). All of these issues were well known by crew members but management seemed ignorant, so I told them before I left.
After returning a while later to pick up my 4% cheque, they tell me they don’t have it. I tell them I need my money. They said they have everyone else’s but they don’t have mine. I asked who I can talk to about this and they said the general manager, but she’s giving half answers “I’ll talk to my superior” or something vague like that. It shouldn’t be that complicated right? She’s saying she needs to talk to the regional director or something. All the info needed for the cheque is on my file, so why is this so complicated? I don’t understand what’s going on, if what I said has something to do with this or if it’s all a big misunderstanding? What do I do?
