Wells Fargo shorts contractor on last paycheck over ISP outage

So today is my last day as an IT help desk contractor at Wells Fargo. At the beginning of this week I told our team lead Michael that my ISP will be doing maintenance, and that I’ll put in an outage report when it happens. In the past when this has happened I put the outage report in, and submit my normal 8hr workday like normal. I’ve had this happen at least 3 times in the past and have never had a problem.

Thinking I made a mistake- I checked our time reporting software, nope 40 hours. So I email my manager and she told me that I reported too many hours. She then goes on to tell me that it’s not policy for them to pay us when our ISP is going maintenance… I told her that this was pretty frustrating to hear and very confusing, and that if I had known I would have come into the office. Her response was basically: “fuck you it’s policy” contractors don’t have “pto”.

I could care less about the money, fuck Wells Fargo and fuck the dystopian contractor work model that we put up with. This whole country needs a fucking work reform. Pic is my last email at the company, sorry for shit quality
