Ok....I can deal with a lot of things, but a computer problem on the very last payday before Christmas....ARRRGGGHHH! Payroll was not direct deposited today, and is not likely to be until the computer is fixed. They can't even manually cut checks right now.
And I have yet to buy my older son's Christmas stuff.
Maybe they ran out of money and just blaming it on the computer.

Take it from an old union shop steward...(Sung to the tune of Jingle Bells...) "Labor Board, Labor Board, LB all the way! Oh what fun it is to spend those fines on Christmas Day, hey!" I would pick up le telephone, and give those folks a little ringy-dingy, if you haven't gotten paid yet--and explain that the checks weren't ready on your payday.

Sue, that's awful. You would think with something as important as paychecks, they would have a backup plan. Is this the first time it's happened?
I'm not ready to fire off something to the Labor Board just yet.
I'm not ready to fire off something to the Labor Board just yet. They did finally get it fixed as of this morning, but our direct deposits will probably be a day late. I can deal with that, as long as it's coming. It was just the issue of not knowing if it was coming or not. I knew they would find a way to make it work, even if they had to hand write the 600+ checks. LOL
I'm so sorry SueBee. I went through the same thing several times
I'm so sorry SueBee. I went through the same thing several times with my company, the payroll girl is on vacation,the computer is down,etc., and it always seemed to be around the holidays. Good Luck!!..Karen

I once had that happen to me when my company was paying every week. Someone called the LB and they got real ugly with them. Now for some reason, my company has changed the paydates from weekly to biweekly..I think they had a slack payroll lady..

Technically, our payday is not until Friday, but they are always available by direct deposit first thing Thursday morning. I guess we've all gotten spoiled by that! I'm just thankful I don't have anything that is automatically withdrawn on Thursday, so I don't have to worry about that.
Oh how I can Relate.. Our Payday was Friday and directs were in
Oh how I can Relate.. Our Payday was Friday and directs were in the bank on Thursdays.One week we had the same thing. But nothing we could do because payday was Friday..
This week I am holding my breath.. Payday today and Friday due to shut down BUT she always messes that one up...
We Will See...
Yea, mine is on Friday, but the money hits my acct. Thursday @ m
Yea, mine is on Friday, but the money hits my acct. Thursday @ midnight. It is pretty cool b/c others that don't have direct deposit, have to wait until Friday @ 2pm..

oh, ewwww...
LOL, I am a payroll/HR person! PLEASE don't grieve it!!

LOL fins ...it's all good, it should be in my account by tomorrow morning, I hope. I feel badly for the Payroll folks at our company, I know they took a beating today - verbally of course.
Sue-- I can relate to how you feel. Back in 2001 when the 9/11
Sue--
I can relate to how you feel. Back in 2001 when the 9/11 bombing happened and they shut down all the Fed-Ex flights, I had to wait an additional week to get my pay. The head payroll dept for my employer is in Florida and the pay checks are flown here to OH. Since Fed-Ex flights were grounded, I had to wait that additional week to get my pay, but the direct deposit people were okay. Since that had happened, I switched to direct deposit.
Whew....big sigh of relief! Not only did my direct deposit come
Whew....big sigh of relief! Not only did my direct deposit come in yesterday, but TWO of them did. It seems they decided to pay us for next week in advance, since we are shutting down over Christmas. (Okay, a few people have to work..but not me!) I can deal with having next week's paycheck in advance, since I don't have to drive back and forth to work next week anyway. WOOHOO! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME!
...or to my kids! This makes Christmas just a bit easier now.
Sue: I'm so glad things worked out, especially getting the ad
Sue:
I'm so glad things worked out, especially getting the advance pay! That certainly helps right before Christmas. Have a great Christmas!
Thank Goodness...Now you can breathe a lot easier!

Karen, I'm sorry to hear about Ethel. It's very hard to lose a pet, especially after that long.

Thanks, guys. Yes it is hard to loose a pet when they are like your family. My mom, who lives with us, has a dog named Fred, so when I got my shih-tsu, I named her Ethel! Poor Fred still looks for Ethel! Jessi - hope you and Ashley, and whoever else that isn't feeling well, gets better to enjoy Christmas!!..KAren :D
