I was fired from Hardee's in Maryville on July 28. Their reason was for innappropriate behavior. Several employee's allegedly claimed i was saying things that were drug related.
This, however is not my complaint, not my problem. My problem is they owe me past wages, and it is my understanding that it is the law that they have to pay your wages if you are fired with - in a set by law amount of time. I do not know what the time frame is, but I am positive they have exceeded it.
On July 29th received a check for 21 hours about $136.00 and was told by the acting manager (our general manager quit with no notice after being with the company for 21 years, 8 of them as general manager, because of the way she was treated-but that is another story) that the check she gave me was my wages for tues, wed, and a partial day that i was fired, That the rest of the days i worked was on my check I received the previous wed.
This is impossible brecause i worked 14 hours on mon. The 24th. The acting manager later called me and left me a message that i was right, they owed me for 36 hours, but it was a sat, and she could'nt contact corporate about it until monday could'nt get my money before Tues. I have heard nothing.
That is not all. When i was promoted to shift leader on Feb. 15, I worked 2 weeks for $6.25 an hour instead of my $7.00 raise I should have been being paid. My first day working as a shift leader was for a Hardee's in St. Joseph mo. I have yet to be paid for that full day of 7 hours. Not to point out the obvious - that was 6 months ago.
What does one do about something like this. I cannot afford a lawyer. I hope this helps. If I could get a lawyer I would file suit. Since I can't, this sure does help ease the bitterness I feel. Hardee's has been mistreating me for months, it has affected all areas of my life, currently in a drpression. Thanks again for listening.
