My last check from a previous employer may have been garnished. | Aug 16, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: Texas, USA My last job was full-time (40 hrs/week) and work-from-home. I provided proper notice and remained in compliance for the entirety. The last shift I worked was on the final day of the pay-period so I should've been paid for a full two weeks (80hrs). Before I was able to clock out at the end of my last shift my access to company resources was removed. I informed my supervisor of the issue but they stated it wouldn't be of any concern. Fast forward to payday and my paycheck is short 75% of my take-home pay. I have not received ANY information at all as to what entity withheld any pay and/or for what reason(s). I immediately reviewed my paystub and the hours are correct as well as the intended final pay amount. However, the deposit amount listed vs the actual depost was short 75%. I contacted my previous supervisor and informed them of the issue. They sent an email to HR and copied me on it. I thought maybe my provided work-from-home laptop could be preventing my final pay from being distributed. I informed my supe and HR in the email that I have not received any emails, mail, packaging, or otherwise to determine how to return the laptop. It has now been over 14 days and there has been no progress on the e-mail chain with HR. I checked the payroll app and no additional checks have been cut. Somewhere between the Payroll provider and the…
Can my employer fire me for being out of work per dr’s orders? | Jul 29, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: New York(upstate) Car Accident date 6/30/26(100% liability on the other driver) I work for a janitorial company as a 2nd job and I have been out of work since 7/13 due to return to work based on dr decision/ Physical therapy status on 8/31. I sent my job all the necessary doctor’s notes and HR indicated that I hav done an outstanding job at work and that they are hoping for a quick recovery. In the back of my mind, I’m concerned they’ll fire me. Is there anything I can do to prevent this, such as file disability with them? Or can they find a reason to let me go still? Thank you
Is this workplace discrimination? Is this termination lawful? Is it potentially a law suit? | Jul 25, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: New York I was terminated yesterday under the guise of "failure to grasp basic concepts." Without going into any specific details, my job that I started two months ago had a lot of small, moving parts. This is my first time working in a corporate environment since I was fully diagnosed with inattentive ADHD. I have a lot of previous workplace trauma from not being aware of *why* my mind did things the way it did and not understanding how to handle my ADHD. I was extremely open and honest with my learning disabilities and ADHD when I joined the company - specifically because this is an organization that is meant to be assisting others with ADHD and learning disabilities amongst a whole host of other things. But let's just say that this is one of their primary things to tackle. In my first month at the company, I struggled and I began to repeat with more conviction because it seemed that it was falling on deaf ears and allowing there to be hostility rather than patience and understanding, that I needed things explained in different ways. I asked more questions than I assume they were used to, because there are a lot of unique situations that I handled. Instead of the questions being accepted with any grace or presence, I was told frequently to look deeper for answers, to stop asking the same questions because it shows that I am unable to understand concepts, and that I should…
Roommate owed one month of unpaid wages but appears to have worked for an illegitimate business | Jul 21, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: New York, New York TL;DR: roommate worked for a business we are now pretty sure was a fake or illegitimate business. She’s been waiting for unpaid wages to reimburse me for expenses but now we’re worried the situation is worse than we thought previously. Would like to be more well informed about what legal action can we taken here. Hi, first time poster here. Thanks in advance for any time and effort shared in the name of helping me. Info: We’re in NYC / Manhattan, and she worked at this place called Neu Smoothies on Broad St for one month and was never paid. They kept stalling and she eventually quit but has been reaching out to request her wages and has yet to receive response. She owes me for expenses and I’ve been waiting for a payment to be made and now we’re worried we’re screwed. Is there any chance of recovering wages owed to her? This revelation just occurred, still in initial shock and don’t have a lot of information at my disposal but will provide what I can.
