I have a DQ, similar to Half's question...I quit my last job with short notice, only three days, and have never received my last paycheck. I left only two days into a pay period so I'm only really due for 16 hours, but regardless I am due! I left, I feel, on bad terms, so going there or calling is not an option. What would you all recommend? BTW, it's been over a month and a half now since I should have received that last paycheck. I also had direct deposit, if that makes any difference.

Write them a letter- write it to the payroll department if you prefer- asking that your check be mailed to you.

Basically why I'm asking is: do they have reason to withhold my paycheck? I thought maybe because I didn't give them the standard two week notice is why they didn't pay me. Is it legal for them to do that?

I wouldn't think so...unless you have something that has to be returned to them or something- like a uniform or whatever. Just for not giving a standard 2 week notice I would certainly hope not- you did the work and earned the money.

Froggie, have you changed addresses since you were hired and not told them?

Where I work, those that are on direct deposit are taken off and their last check is a regular check that is mailed. Some people forget to notify their employer of a change in address.

Just a thought.

Otherwise, I'd either call or write a letter. If you have nothing of theirs, they should have sent your check.

No change of address, and I was assuming they'd send a regular check anyway. I do have my timecard and name-badge still. When I write my letter, I'll be sure to include those...maybe that's the hold up? Who knows, I just want my money.

Under the "Free Expression" thread didn't the subtitles used to be links? Couldn't you click on them before and go right to that area?

Right now, Random, facts, scruples, vent/gripe, etc.

I 'm not sure what you mean Bigd...I just checked and if you go HERE, all the subfolders are there. If you click on any one of them , the thread opens?

maybe you had too good a time at the Resort

<sticking my nose in to your conversation>

I think BigD means if you go HERE, and look at the Free Expression folder with the different colored Right now, Random, facts, scruples, vent/gripe, etc. listed under the Folder name. Those small colored thread names under "Free Expression" used to be clickable links. At least, I'm pretty sure I remember them being so.

I am going to post my question here too (in the help section)

Question -

Do I still need to use the TVCH homepage when I come here so we get counted as popular in the 'best sites' category? I hope that made sense... I guess what I am saying is that I would like to use the search page as my homepage but have been using the TVCH homepage then going to the forum then the search page so we could get counted.

Thanks:-)

I think there might have been an easier way of asking this question LOL

BigD: The links that were there (not your imagination at all) were removed. It was a test that we thought might be useful, however it wasn't intended to stay and we felt it was redundant to have them when it was just as easy to click into the Free Expressions area and select the thread you want. They also did not have a way of updating to indicate when new posts were in each thread as the board is designed to do otherwise.

Moondance: From what we have seen about the polls, most of them are based on active users clicking on a link to 'vote' for us. Some have indicated they use the domain statistics and, since we are hosted at Bomis, we are sometimes excluded in that type of poll. On the other hand, there are ads that do get counted when people come to the board through the front page and that's always helpful to the board. Ultimately, it is up to each member how they access the board.

Thanks for the questions, though.

Thanks! I thought it was "just my imagination, running away with me"....

Anyway - I liked it and used it all the time, but then again I am not soooooo lazy that I can't click twice.

Thanks to all the mods!

ok here is my ?

in are weight room/teenager bed room.
that allso in the basment

we seen some light green mold on one of the weight belts that had not beem used in some time.

I cleaned the belt good with some cleaner and the area were it was.

did not see any mold anywere for 3 weeks
but

when we got back from are trip to RG'S
the mold was back on 2 more weight belts and on a shelf
it does not seem to be taking over the room

we did keep the room closed so the younger to boys would not get hurt on the weights.
we are now keeping it open so that might help the mold problem?

WHAT CAN I USE TO CLEAN THE ROOM (the hole room top to bottom) TO KEEP THE MOLD AWAY?

Nightcrawler, the best mold cleaner is bleach but it also depends on what kind of surfaces you are talking about. If the basement walls are still concrete or cement, you can use bleach water on them. If your walls have washable paint, you can use bleach water. Of course you cannot use bleach on some fabrics or surfaces.

A good air flow will definitely help to slow down the mold process.

Froggie, in CA if you leave a job, no matter how much notice you give them, they have 3 days to give you your last check. I don't know what the laws are in PA (per your profile). However, I do think it could be related to the fact that you still have your time card. I work with PR and most of my clients would not authorize a check without a time card. I hope they respond if you send the time card to them with a note. I would make a copy of the time card before I mailed it (if you haven't sent it already). Good luck and keep us posted on the outcome.

Just to clarify, it's not a time punch-card, it's basically a credit card type card that you use to swipe in and out for the day. There are no records of my time stored on this card, it's all done through a computer system. But thanks for your responses everyone! I hope to find time to type a letter sometime this week and get it out in the mail along with my time card and name badge. Hopefully they respond quickly!

Froggiegirl, That could be your problem. We don't give out last paychecks until ID badges (double as punch cards), keys, and parking permits are returned.

Ok...never really thought about it much until Kaili asked if I had something to return to them. I got to thinking and realized I still have my time card and name badge. Ooops! I'll let you all know what happens!

I can almost guarantee that would be why you haven't gotten your check. Even when I was a driver helper this winter...at my own job (I work at UPS in the building, but I was doing a temp job there riding along with drivers to help them at Christmas time)...after the driver helper season ended they wouldn't give me my regular paycheck until I returned my uniform. And I didn't even quit!

Good luck :-)
