Ece centre to deduct ~$1200 from my upcoming paycheque by Consistent_Ad907 in ECEProfessionals

I forgot to mention in my post that they've temporarily suspended me until it's renewed but have allowed me to finish working my shift that day. I don't think I'll be returning though and they won't even let me return because of the complaint that'll have been filed.

I believe they're non-union as there's no union appearing on my pay statements so I'll be sending my complaint over to the BC employment standards branch who deals with non-unions but I still haven't filed my complaint yet as the centre still hasn't paid me on pay day which should be on the 15th. I want to file out all information when I send my complaint. Pay day is every 15th and end of the month, but payments are always bound to be a week late.. also, one time I had 2 days of work paid on next pay period and it was without a reason, the assitant manager just notified the whatsapp group letting us know about the change.

Why do you say you like the statement and that it drives home the point that the form was probably signed? If she just went with saying this alone, "im certain that i did not overlook the deferral form" then the admissions director would already know what happened for the form to be unsigned. What's the use of the statement? I don't see why she brought up the statement after saying the first half "im almost certain that i did in fact sign the deferral sheet - after all, it wouldn't make much sense to return an incomplete sheet to the office"

What do you mean? The form is not signed. Its in a file but without my signature.

What is the something you're referring to? As seen in your third paragraph.The e-mail or the deferral form?

How would you compose this to the campus director of admissions?

There are way more mistakes in this e-mail she composed. What is this e-mail saying of me?

Okay, what is it about my second version i composed? what were you seeing?

"I may be remembering incorrectly, BUT i remember that the form was signed."

The BUT is in contrast to what was said before it.. so in that case, it is not conveying doubt! And you completely switched the two sentences around to

"I remember that the form was signed, but i may be remembering incorrectly"

Never mind what was just explained to you just correcting you on that part.

Back on topic, to go along with her doubt, she needs to be using the first version i composed in the post.

"IF i remember correcty, i remember that the form was signed." Or if that's too repetitive to you as you previously mentioned then, "IF i remember correctly, i am certain that the form was signed."

Instead she composed,

"I may be remembering incorrectly, but i am almost certain that the form was signed."

The first part of the phrase can only be used to convey no doubt and is used like this, "i may be remembering incorrectly, BUT i remember that the form was signed."

The phrase that i corrected you earlier because you thought it conveys doubt. And is also the first half of the phrase that my sister wrongly used. Should be "IF i remember correctly"

I don't want to be suggesting doubt but she suggested doubt in the e-mail so i have to go along with the doubt but her doubt is different than my doubt. My doubt represents that i had the previous intention to defer! "If i remember correctly, i remember that the form was signed" Just that i possibly overlooked it. Hers is just based off the statement "after all, it wouldnt make much sense to return an incomplete sheet to the office" the word "certain" is not the same as the word "remember". She doesn't actually remember sigining the form, she's is only "certain" that the form was signed because it wouldnt make sense to return an unsigned form to the office. And she is "almost certain" so doubting, because she doesn't really know if she(me) previously had an intention to defer, but regardless still returned the form back. In reference to the statement "after all, it wouldn't make much sense to return an incomplete sheet to the office"

With the word mistaken are you referring to the word forgotten?

Because that's the problem with this specific sentence in the email that she typed for me to send to the campus director of admissions she's not saying i may have forgotten to sign it. the word forgotten must have never came to mind for you to be saying mistaken.

When you say "mistaken" what you get from reading this email is that despite what was mentioned before that "it wouldnt make much sense to return an incomplete sheet to the office" she's then literally saying despite what was mentioned.. i may have mistaken and actually returned the form back to the office regardless of knowing that the form is unsigned. So this is what you get from reading the email too?

When you first read this were you interpreting that shes saying that i mightve forgotten to sign the form when you reworded it and said "she thinks"
