i was going to work sat because i got rent coming up but without a paycheck i can't buy food.
W/O food, i can't work ( farm labor) the paychecks arrive by UPS, which arrives at the end of the day so no way am i going to gamble
on it being there so will skip work monday too, which , not havin real food ( i got some cans of salmon, some eggs but I eat meat in the morning to get the energy i need ) .
the supervisor is not answering his phone, the foreman, a mexican , lives on the farm and shrugs his shoulders but can't really communicate with me -
anyone have an idea what the process is in Arizona to get paid?
I have no idea what to do if the check isn't there monday afternoon.
getting a new job, of course, but i had already gotten time off approved to go see my mom who is in failing health in the hospital in florida - but the next couple weeks of work was going to part of those funds too.
:'(

Each state has laws regarding pay and when it needs to happen. IIRC, here in Illinois if paychecks fail to arrive in a timely manner, they have to give you partial payment in cash (or a check, I disremember) of at least half. However, that's after 3 days without pay. So if you were due to be paid Friday, they have until the following Wednesday to at least get you a partial payment. But that was back in the early 1990's that I remember reading that.
If the checks come via UPS, then they should be there Monday. I take it the farm is using a payroll service like ADP or Equifax ?

they finally paid me on tuesday, i worked wednessday ( start of the work week ) but really didn't feel like it .
My tax return coming in tomorrow so i will call in to go get it and use the remaing days of the month to clean up the rv i am renting and find the next dump.
I am going to bite the bullet / use the money to go visit my mom one last time, she had something called "silent aspiration" a very close call.
two falls.
My sister said on a 1 to ten scale of close to death she is "9.5" she lives in florida and is monitering the situation
