My sister/roommate worked at a retail company for about a month while the company was still establishing that location. I saw that because she says it was super disorganized—there was always some complication anytime basically anything happened, and they never had anything for her to do. The manager in charge of her paychecks isn’t even the manager of the location, but in California instead.
Anyway, she quit around early November, probably around 6 weeks, so 3 pay stubs worth, in. But she never received a direct deposit or a check. At first they told her they had mailed it, and that was a complication on our end. We had never received a mail key from our apartment complex and honestly hadn’t thought about it, so when we finally opened the box it turns out it had said “vacant” on a card.
We fixed that, and she emailed the manager in charge of her checks probably around thanksgiving, and all they said is they would send it shortly.
Since then, nothing. She says she thinks they’ve blocked her number, since she’s been asking for her time sheets (I want to file a wage claim). We’ve even threatened an employment lawyer. Is there anything we can do? Seems like blatant wage theft.
