My paycheck dilemma
I just started a new job and I love it. I had to leave my last job because there were no benefits and it was costing me too much since I had to buy all my own supplies. I'd always had a good working relationship with everyone that I worked with. I was surprised when my boss told me to leave when I went to turn in my 2 weeks notice. Then she wouldnt give the parents the good-bye letters that I wrote and she ordered me to never return. Omg!! I was shocked and outraged. I was also very hurt. I cared a lot for those children and the parents opinions of me mattered a lot to me. So, I reacted by taking the supplies that I purchased with me when I left. I was entitled to them since I paid for them myself. Ofcourse, I had to practically beg to get my things returned to me. And a lot of my stuff is still there. To make matters even worse I wasn't paid my next to last paycheck. They skipped over that and only gave me my last paycheck wich was only for 14hrs. When my husband brought this to their attention they said that they did send it to payroll. So, we waited but it never arrived. When my husband called again she actually called the police on him. She told them that he was harassing him. Geeze! We decided we're not dealing with her anymore. She's obviously unstable. The way that she's reacted and because of behavior that I've witnessed in the past I really do believe that she is bi-polar. Today I called the Department of labor. They said they would investigate the matter and that we should hear back in 7 days. I really hope that they can get the money that I'm owed. It is so unfair how I've been treated. I feel so bad for the children. They deserve so much better. They never should've bought a daycare. They dont buy anything for the kids....ever. Oh, those poor kids.
