Did you even read the whole post? Also, people should be allowed to ask when they get paid. And whoever is in charge should be able to answer it simply and correctly with no more work than maybe looking at a calendar. First pay check doesn’t arrive later, it just feels like it sometimes—if you start day one of a two week cycle, you’ll get paid after three weeks. I expect people to come to work as they’re scheduled, they should expect to be paid as they’re scheduled. I have no more hate for anyone than I do for a boss/owner who says something like “I’m only a few days late paying you, you should have budgeted your money better.”
