They are in the process of a class action suit for this and many other supposed violations.

Its been all over the net. She is not doing one this year. She did the Pay it Forward thing instead. There was an article about it on AOL News last week. Some of the small business that look forward to it for the publicity were a lil disappointed that she wasn't going to do it.

NO!  You have to be payed for what you work. I had a previous employer that did the same to me and I had to go all the way up the chain and eventually was paid for 60 days of docked lunches I never took!

If your company is any kind of company at all, like where I worked every time the minimum wage went up, they moved everybody that worked there up that same amount also, that way the people already working there stayed ahead, which they rightfully should, since they were employed first.

Anymore employers seem to be able to do anything they want and unfortunately whether it is legal or not GET AWAY WITH IT.\n\nMy boss' idea of a pay cut was like last week for example.  Instead of working our normal scheduled 32 hr holiday week schedule +8hrs holiday pay, all I got was 23 hrs of work just because upper mngmnt said we need to save money "again".\nThis is the kind of BS we've been tolerating lately off and on and its getting really old.  Mngmnt doesn't get any proportional weekly cut and I feel they should as well.  Its always the working stiff in America who has to eat the SH** of mngmnt's problems.  I feel a lot of working people would agree with this statement.

Yes, I did know that! Now, with the latest raise, they make 16 times as much as a full time minimum wage worker And considering that they take whole months off, and don't show up for votes, and go on "Fact Finding" missions to Fiji, they don't work anywhere CLOSE to 40 hours a week, either, so it's actually more than 16 times, isn't it?

Yes dear.  You spent the money.  If you objected to the increase you should have called and had them lower it or not spend the money.

Good grief, Kennedy Western is not only not accredited, but they've also been taken to court for fraud. No respectable employer would take anything from them seriously.\n\nRUN!

Nope.  \n\nThey are willing to sell it to you at that price.  As such, you have no grounds to sue.  They are passing through the cost of the use of an ATM card at about what it costs.  \n\nIf you want the lower price, pay cash.

I purchased a used 1993 K1500 Chevy pickup from you in May of 2003. There was a 4 inch suspension lift kit on the truck at the time of purchase. Unfortunately the tie rod broke and I am having a very difficult time understanding why your company is asking for $900.00 for a new one.\n\nI have been informed by your employeest hat this is a common problem. I am sure you will appreciaite that this situation is unacceptable and is causing me a great deal of personal and financial inconvience. \n\nI would ask that you find away to reticfy this problem as quickly as possibale. I have alays had faith in your company but this episode has colored my view.

haha no... don't even think of paying them a cent back.  It is their payroll mistake so fuck em.  Tell your old boss he has no buisness calling you because you no longer work there and the money has already been cashed.

If there was no increase, then there is a 0% increase. I do not know what motts is trying to say ...\nsince 24,900% times 6 is 1494 and if the additional 6 cents is included, trust me, you are going to pay it...\n\nyour increase went from 6 cents to 1500 cents...not 6 cents to 1494 cents...\n\nNote: 3 cents is 50% of 6 cents and \n      6 cents is 100% of 6 cents and\n      9 cents is 150% of 6 cents and\n      12 cents is 200% of 6 cents and ... So, if there was a 100% increase in your munincipal telephone tax, your charges would have gone to 12 cents per month. \n\nNow,\n\nSince $15 = 1500 cents, your tax was raised from 6 cents per month to 1500 cents per month. The question is :\n\n1500 is what percent of 6...\n\n1500 = x% (6)\n\n1500 = x/100 (6)\n\n1500 = 6 x / 100\n\nso, (cross multiplication) (1500/1) = (6x/100)\n\n6x = 150000\n\nx = 25000. \n\nSo (YES!), \n\nyour munincipal telephone tax was raised 25,000%.\n\nThere should be some kind of law or rule that allows the increase only a certain amount. Nothing close to 25000 percent. If it was raised this much, you have a bunch of crooks working on your local munincipal board, or whatever...\n\nWith this much more money going in, guess where it is going...\n\nI don't need the ten points, but I hope you are complaining to the right authority...this is rediculous...\n\nAlso, although your tax increased 25000%, you had an increase of 250 times what you were paying. In other words, for every dollar you were paying before, you are now paying $250 or for every cent ($.01) you were paying before, you are now paying 250 cents which is also $2.50.\n\nif the increase is 25000% or 24900%, forget about it, both are a huge increases...\n\nWhen was the increase...from 1940 until last month or from last month to this month...

the renumeration policies differ from company to company with regards to staff on probation whether or not the job is first job for you and whether or not you have any prior working experience related to the same field or not.\n\nBut strictly speaking and prevaling labor laws across the universe, the employeer is liable to pay salary to the employee during probation period.

They are not in good standing with the Better Business Bureau, apparently there have been alot of unanswered complaints.  \n\nCheck it out for yourself

This isn't a legal issue, it's a company policy issue.  If you are on salary they have to pay you the whole day, because you showed up; however, they can also charge your vacation time for the hours not worked.

My previous job had!  I had worked for the same company for 30 years, owner bought 3 new companies and incorporated them in the original.  I was working over 60 hours a week, the last year following owners stroke with no days off, and it always seemed being paid about $100 less a month than it took to get by.  It was a small company, no more than 7 employees at best, usually just boss, his wife and me.  Oh, and no raises for last 6 years.  The last year with no days off finally got to me.  I am looking for better, but right now working at a job that pays half of what I had been making, but still glad I got out!
