Six weeks after the fact, I still haven't received a penny of the Overtime pay I was promised a couple weeks before Christmas.
I worked a full 8 hour shift on what was supposed to be my day off, then returned to work after hours for 5 hours to help with some restocking and setting up displays. I was guaranteed overtime, rather than lieu time, for those 13 hours.
When it didn't show up on my pay the next week, I figured no problem. I honestly don't know for sure if our pay is held back a week or not, so I figured I'd wait until my next check before I mentioned anything. Two weeks ago when I got my last pay, there was still no overtime. I mentioned it to my boss. He said he'd have it corrected; asked if I wanted a cheque written out, or if it was alright to put it on this week's pay. I said it was alright to add it to my next pay, just so long as I was still, in fact, getting paid.
Today? Still nothing. I'm somewhat less than impressed. Frankly, the only reason I agreed to work that day was because I need that extra money. I'm more than a tiny bit upset that I still haven't got anything.
