Well, this pisses me off.
I was just going through my check stubs and noticed a disturbing fact.
I was told I would make $7.70 an hour, that rate appeared on my first two checks, but ever since then (about 11 checks) the rate I was paid was only $7.50!
Now, how it took me so long to notice, I don't know, and I know my employer didn't do this on purpose, but I figured it out to be about $90 (after taxes) that I was shorted. Now that dosen't sound like much, but that is a half of my bills for the month, not including my car payement, so its a significant amount of money for me.
Anyway, I'm going to stop by my work tomorrow and show my boss, I'm not sure how he'll handle it, but I think that leagally, they owe me back pay. But most of all I just want it fixed for the future.
