Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I worked for holiday inn for one week (could not stand being treated like crap) i went to get my paycheck, and they shorted me $40.00 actually 4.5 hrs @ $8.00 per hour. I told them about it, and they said that they never make mistakes. Well guess what, they did this time! I even had joe ortiz sign a printout of the hours that they owe me, and when i sent an email to kurt gallagher([email protected]) the hotels general manager, he did not respond to me. They are obviously tring to get out of paying me. Just another small example of how these people from INDIA are trying to make a quick buck. I quit a week before payday, so when i checked up on the payday law, i should have been compensated in "FULL" by the following week which was payday. I told them that i needed my money now to pay bills, they did not care. I also told them that i would report them to the wage and hour board, they did not like that at all!!!!

Why is that

"Why is that??" Jasper wrote: "yet I am suppose to wait 7 to 10 days? Why is that? " Why is that? Because you chose to write a check. And when you write a check, you agree to comply with the company's check-writing policy which states that you must wait 7-10 days. Don't like that policy? Then use a check card instead! This is 2006 people!!! Consider yourself lucky to find a retail establishment that accepts checks at all!!!!

Check 21

He also thinks Wally World is ripping him off because they won't give him cash for returns paid for by check, before the check clears the bank. Yep, Ron White is correct. Some things can't be fixed. Robert - Jacksonville, Florida U.S.A. Robert, I don't know the person making this accusation, but I will agree with him about Walmart, as well as other places. I purchased something with a check, and had to sign a form saying I agree to have the money electronically withdrawn. Now, they have their money. If I should have to return one of the items, there is no check to clear, yet I am suppose to wait 7 to 10 days? Why is that? The only ones being helped by the CHECK 21 bill, is business, and screw the working stiffs.

Oh, so you're "trying to accomplish something"? What, exactly?

#5Consumer Comment

Richard, oops, I mean, "Mike" .. exactly what are you "trying to accomplish"? After reading your plethora of reports, I have yet to see anything of merit, anything that indicates you want to resolve your outstanding issues rather than just flap your lips and yak about them to whoever will listen. Perhaps you could share, then, exactly what your goal is? (By the way, when posing as multiple personalities (aka Mike), you may want to lose the caps. You are the only person on this board who hasn't realized the implications of posting in all caps, and the only person who continues to post in this manner.)

Correcting spelling

#10Consumer Suggestion

Robert from Florida- before you go correcting someone else's spelling (and calling them a rube) you really should learn how to spell properly yourself. The word is spelled criticizing.

Since everyone is correcting spelling, how about the math. I am still trying to figure out how you get $40.00 if you work 4.5 hrs @ $8.00 hr. Is that possible, or some new type of math or bonus program I should know about.

Oh good grief! Well, I had read the various reports submitted by Richard, and I must say, he is worse than Charles and his mom! In fact, if you combined Charles and Todd together, the result would be Richard. LOL All we need now is for him to start quoting the bible....

You're an absolute riot Richard. You speak of yourself in the 3rd person, while attempting to pretend it isn't you. See where it says "Update Submitted by the original author"? That's YOU genius. And as far as my spelling goes...is that the best you can do? Then try this.."CRITISIZING" is spelled CRITISISING. See the difference? Or try this..."YOU ARE PROBABLY ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE THAT BUY EVERYTHING FROM WALMART-KNOW WHAT I MEAN?". It should say...You are probably one of those people WHO BUYS everything from WalMart. DO you know what I mean? Can you see the difference there? Before a rube like you tries correcting anybody, you should make sure all of your ducks are in line. You just keep pretending you are not you, and while you are at it, stop trying to cash bad checks at Wally World. Who uses checks anymore anyway? People who write bad ones.

You might have missed some of Richard's other posts.....

#18Consumer Suggestion

Tue, August 08, 2006

Apparently, he starts right off by telling his new employer that he demands "respect" from them - and then if he doesn't get this "respect" he finds some other problems with the job. Things like the employer is racist, or sexist or is just picking on poor old Richard for reasons unknown. I tried earlier to help by explaining to him that respect was something you earn, not something you demand. His only response was to accuse me of working for Holiday Inn.

Try working harder and longer

#19Consumer Comment

Tue, August 08, 2006

Try working harder and longer than just one week. How can someone truely assess a job after just one week. The management probably just docked you for the time that they caught you napping in one of the rooms.
