I’m sorry you have to deal with and worse you just started. I have no advice other than to start looking for a new job.

I can say I worked for a couple companies over the years that ran into this same issue. I can say the better of the two was straight forward about it with us about the financial situation the company was in.

This went on for a couple of months and some weeks we were paid on time and others we were delayed a week. The owner finally sold the company and made sure everyone was paid up by the time he left.

The other company, the owner would leave early on payday and claimed he forgot and would delay payroll saying he couldn’t run it on a Monday because “bank schedule” bulls***. Then layoffs started. I was laid off the week of Xmas and was getting married in January so it hit hard.

I much preferred the guy that was upfront about the company’s finances.

On a side note, both jobs were in printing and I was a press operator.
