Returned cheque
    #26419061 - 01/06/20 10:31 AM (4 years, 1 month ago)

Man I'll cash my pay checks

For the restaurant that I work at , I like getting the cash

Lately It always comes back as returned cheque

So I keep getting screwed but hopefully they'll give it to me

They are shut down for 2 weeks right now

About $ 800 

Plus more that I need to pick up so about $ 1000

Has this happened to you ?

I'd confront the restaurant about the frequent bad checks,  and maybe ask for direct deposit instead.

Yeah man maybe I'll find a new one to work at

They dont do that

They also dont take tax out of our cheques so I'm going to owe a bunch of tax

The guy who did my tax messed up my birthday every year

so I got screwed out of getting any of it back too

I went into his bulding to talk to him

Glanced into a room near his

it was books and garbage  everywhere with a desk flipped over , for real

No complaints just makes me laugh

I'm not sure how I will fix that but I'll ask someone

I'd be hard pressed to work for a company that wrote bad checks and didn't pay me.

Like the restaurant is just closed? Has that happened before? Maybe they are just saying that and they may not open again at all.

Sounds like they beat you out of some money bro.  Sorry to hear.  Kitchens are notorious about that

it happened once before they gave me my money back plus 5 $

Now it happened with 2 cheques at the same time

Also have a third one ready and a fourth coming

they shut down before they could get that one to us but hopefully it's just for vacation

It's a family place but they should have lots of money

Not my business why they obviously dont

Only reason why I work pretty much all of the time

It's because I'm trying to achieve goals

Unfortunately it requires dealing with minor things like this

No big deal , no stress or frustration

I think it's good life lessons

It builds strength and character

In ontario they changed a law where if you work over 50 hours a company doesnt have to pay you overtime

So no matter how many hours I go it's always minimum wage with more tax added onto that every hour

Honestly love what I do , so it's cool

Am looking for something where my potential can serve me though

One day I'll find it

A good amount of the people I work with are here on visas

They inspired me to go work in United kingdom , New Zealand , Australia

It's something I'll honestly do soon enough have until I'm 35 , can do 2 years in the UK but I just want to see it

have people to go with who've been all around london

So it's interesting to me

Find out what you like what you dont like

I'm sure most of everything will be cool , if you like working

Not sure I've only been there about 10 months

A lot of the Mexican places shut down too

for a few weeks for the holiday

Never ate where I work

I know the owner though

Play bocce ball with his family

a bunch of old men

It's funny

They take it serious and they scream at all of those little balls

So I'm sure it will re open

That is smart thinking though

They told me to cash them right away and I do

The first time I walked in there

Asked them for a job

They hired me on the spot and wanted me to start working right away

Ended up coming back the next day to start

Everybody knows it's kind of a shitty place to work

I like it though , it's fun

It's not a good sign.  This is a busy season and a well run shop does'nt shut just down in winter for that long, especially with how hard it is to make it in the biz right now.  If they are on vacation and do'nt have money in the bank, how are they going to pay for inventory on the reopening unless they're hiding money?  It is your business why they do'nt have the money when they should, and i mean that in the literal sense as that's how you make YOUR money.  So is it gambling, drugs, or just poorly run?

Its poorly run with about 3 bosses

It has a big dinning room , gets filled up often

With lots of take out and deliverys

I'm just going to give them the paper

Going to say it didnt go through , ask them for it nicely

Not going to tell anyone

You cant confront or even really talk to Italians

They only hear what they want to hear

Most of the time they dont hear something good

I remember going over there a few months ago

Asked them if I could help anyone or the community

They got mad like oh you think we need help :lol:

Never received a bounce check in previous jobs. BUT, I had one boss who would "Forget it was payday". From my personal experience it could just be terrible management, never assume Mal intent on the first incident, but if it's happening more than once, ask for direct deposit, or start looking for a more financially secured work place. But from the sounds of it try get your government involved and report this, and have some co-workers who could testify against your boss and report it as well. You shouldn't suffer because of a crummy head hancho.

I worked for an indoor tennis club that went under. Showed up for 3 weeks before one day the doors were locked. Was 4 weeks behind in pay. Took about another 8 weeks to get paid but we got paid first (wages) before the other creditors.

Not sure about your situation with the lack of tax withholding you might not qualify as a regular employee, putting you in line with other creditors

If I had an employer that was bouncing checks more than once, I'd be looking for a new job. I come to work when I'm expected to, I expect to be paid when I'm supposed to.

Can bet if I called in and said I just don't feel like coming in today, it'd be a problem. They're counting on my reliability, and I'm counting on theirs.


--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

Thanks

I work at a weed factory too

7 days a week in a greenhous

Deliver food on the side

Lately I'll honesly do 175 hours of work

more or less in two weeks

all for minimum wage

Probably going to quit this restaurant after I get my money

we will see I'll know for sure in 10 days

Those old men will get it for me if I need them to

Wither it's closed down for good or not

I have 2 more cheques to collect after the OP so it's a lot of money

Would never report anyone or anything like that , I'm sure the bank knows and it's not just mine
