Art Slowdown Why?
2 years ago
Some of you may have noticed I've been posting art less frequently over the last couple of months or so. The reason for this, sadly, is that my job in IRL life has gone to absolute shit.
At the start of the year, I went from receiving wages late to receiving wages never, so I'm trying to put some attention on getting that resolved, which my bosses are very not happy with me about. Coincidentally, around the same time, the other member of staff I was on the rota with walked out, joining the other couple dozen who quit since I've been working there, and we've had no applications at all for the job vacancy since. We're also open 7 days a week, so I'm needed there pretty much constantly.
Upshot is I'm now the only one doing my job, working basically every shift across the entire week, and I'm not being paid for it.
Yeah, not going great.

Eesh... that's horrible. You don't deserve to be working for nothing at all. Nobody does.

That seems like a legitimate work violation. If you're working for them, they have to pay you.

I have told them this, and I'm taking steps to get it dealt with.

Very good to hear. Don't let them take advantage of you! You deserve to get paid for your work

Manifesting them getting their comeuppance. Hope this gets resolved sooner rather than later -- and that they don't perform anything retaliatory.

Pardon me but your profile pic matches your situation.

Why are you still working for them if they're making you do all this work and not paying you?

Unfortunately I don't have another job to move to just yet.

If you aren't getting paid then it sounds like you don't have a job now.

That is ridiculously illegal, and you need to report it to your Board of Labor.

Have done, don't worry.

That is bs that you do not get compensation for being there every damn day.
