I just started working part time at Expo Design Center as a second job. Just because it's a second job doesn't mean I don't need the money. I didn't give up last Thursday and Friday nights, all day Saturday and Sunday, and then Monday night to work for free. When the trainer confirmed that my hours were entered in the system, and then the store manager called me to confirm he did it himself because the HR woman quit, I took it as oath that I would get PAID TODAY.

I checked my bank account this morning and didn't see the money. I thought maybe it was because I signed up for direct deposit too late. No biggie - I could deposit the check at the bank on the way home. But then some guy tells me that there isn't a check for me, and oh well I'll "get it on my next check" is BULLSHIT. I don't work for free. I didn't give up my fucking social life to work retail for FREE. I don't want it on my next paycheck two weeks from now. I want my check now. Don't act like it's some major fucking hassle to cut me a manual check; the trainer said it's done all the time.

I don't care if we are going through yet another changing of the management guard because management didn't make quota - just gimme my fucking money. I'm already one of the best associates you've got for the simple fact that I don't hide from customers, make faces behind their backs, or make it my mantra to tell that that yes in fact the most expensive line of (insert product here) will work for their project. I wouldn't want that done to me.
