Permission to vent agan. I appologize but this is a bit confusing
I was out of work for about 2 1/2 weeks in November due to an overuse/repetitive strain injury. My work has a policy that you get paid for the first 5 days that you're absent from work and after that it goes over to MetLife disability and you get paid for any time past the first 5 days once you're approved.
Well my job messed up and didn't pay me for the first 5 days when they were supposed to. Finally just last week I got paid for only 2 of the 5 days, which was about 3 weeks late. Great, but not what I want. My job has two days when you get paid, Thursday which is a regular pay day, and Tuesday which they send back pay (like I am waiting for). I got squat on both days this week.
What makes it worse is, I got approved for the rest of the time on November 30th and payroll received the request to release my pay on December 1, but it takes 10 days before you actually get your money. Well today is the 10th day, and my pay day and I got absolutely nothing.
Calling payroll is aboslutely useless because all it is is a voicemail system, you leave a message and they'll call you back when they feel like it. My manager and the office clerk haven't had much luck. Yeah, they got me a whole 2 days worth of pay back after 3 weeks, but that's nothing compared to the rest that they owe me.
It's even harder now not only because it's christmas, and Reeses has alot of vet bills we have to pay, but I'm out again because of the injury. I returned to work on the 27th but it's acting up again. I'm seriously scared that they'll screw up again and I won't get any pay next week.
I'm starting to feel like I'm not even employed at the company anymore seeing as payroll doesn't seem to be recognizing that they owe me money. If they overpaid me and *I* owed them something, then oh you bet it would be taken the first chance they got.
