Wtf do I even do??? I got hired, worked for ~3 weeks, technically still training I guess, and then got fired over text for complete nonsense and I’m not just saying that because I’m upset. When I started, they had me sign an NDA and still they have none of my tax information or literally anything. They already kicked me out of the app that shows when I worked and what I’m owed and now I’m being ignored. I already worked through a pay period and they collected none of my information. What the fuck do I do???

I work Per Diem at a hospital. I meant to pick up a Friday, but I accidentally picked up the wrong Friday which is a week before.

I have a second job and had a shift scheduled on the wrong Friday, so I had to call out on that day (it was 1 hour before my shift because I noticed last minute).

I texted my manager and called the unit to let the team know. How screwed am I?

I worked at for 3+ years. I resigned on 30 Dec 2024, but withdrew my resignation after my manager requested me to stay and accepted a ₹3.6L retention bonus with an 18-month clawback clause.

I finally left on 10 July 2026, after completing my project, and had already completed around 16 of the 18 months. I also bought out 72 days of my notice period.

HR is now demanding ₹3.6L repayment. I understand I technically left before 18 months, but I want to know whether there is any legal basis to challenge the full recovery or request a pro-rata/waiver, considering I completed the project and almost the entire retention period.

Any advice from Indian employment lawyers would be appreciated.

Cross posted curious on if this is legal.

I have a friend who’s worked for this Toronto based company for years. They got laid off and still haven’t received all the money this company owes them. Apparently they have a long history of not paying their employees on time and punishing them/laying them off for speaking out or standing up for themselves. I’m wondering if anyone else has had similar experience.

I worked for a small manufacturer from March 2022 until June 2025 running their day to day operations. Salary, set schedule, their building, their equipment. But the owner never actually put me on payroll. No withholding, no pay stubs, no W2. He gave me a 1099 in 2022 and then just nothing for 2023, 2024 and 2025 while still paying me the same way the whole time. It was always going to get fixed "soon," plus there was talk of me getting a share of the company. I stuck around because I liked the work and thought the place had potential.
I left in June 2025 after he got over 4 months behind on payroll. He still owes me and has been slowly paying it back since.
Then in October I got hit by a car. My work has me on my feet 80-90% of the day so that pretty much ended any chance of job hunting or picking up freelance work. Had to get my ankle fused in February and I've had complications with the healing ever since.
In March I asked him for a W2 for 2025. He said he'd look into it. Then said I was actually an independent contractor. Then said he'd review it again. Then nothing. So I filed my taxes with a 4852 and opened a wage claim with the CA Labor Commissioner.
I figured once the 4852 was in I could finally file for disability. Did that, and it came back denied in June for insufficient earnings, 0.00 in all four quarters of my base period. Which honestly makes sense since he never reported a dime to EDD.
Right now I'm putting together a request for recomputation with proof of about 28k that actually got paid to me during that base period, and filing a DE 230 for a worker classification assessment. Legal Aid at Work has me scheduled but not for another two weeks, and I'm ripping through what's left of my savings trying to get by. No income since February.
Evidence wise I'm not empty handed. I've got texts where he calls my pay salary and payroll, bank transfers, pictures of company checks, published articles he wrote where he says I work for him, and every venmo and paypal transfer with screenshots and statements.
What I'm trying to figure out is whether there's a real path to getting DI when the employer never withheld SDI, or if the misclassification angle is a dead end and I should stop pouring time into it. Also whether there's anything I should be doing differently before or after I submit the recomputation, and if anything moves faster than waiting years on the labor board.
Happy to hear it if the answer is that this isn't going to work. I'd rather know.

So I have worked about 6 weekends in the past 3 months and my manager agreed once the project is completed. I will be compensated for those days that are 12 days in total and my manager approved the transaction hr sent that mail to finance team everything going smoothly and today on salary day I got to know that manager approved compensation for those working weekends but the CFO of company rejected it mentioning it's your learning phase and you don't have enough knowledge of the module that's why you were not able to complete the work in stipulated time period and blaming me for not being competent just for the sake that they don't need to pay but the reality is I worked hard and that's the management who requested me to work for those weekends not because I was not able to work and idk how to deal with this situation

You guys can read the mail attached here like literally being loyal to a company gives you nothing.....

Hi! I am currently on my 5th month, going into my 6th month with my current company. I am planning to resign because I want to transfer to another company that is closer to my home in the province.
My question is, if I submit my resignation letter before the scheduled payday, will I still receive my salary on the regular payday, or will the company hold my salary and include it in my final pay instead?
