My wife told me this happened to her and she told the person well I'm sorry I don't have money to fill my gas to make it to my next shift. So when they get me my money I'll be able to make it back to work. It wasn't immediate but she was paid in a separate check earlier than the next on the matter
@@supercaptainbatdoggy Economy is booming. Unemployment is at lowest sustained level in 50 years. Inflation in the last 3 1/2 years is 40% was leftover pandemic supply chain, 53% from corporate greedflation charging higher rates for the same products than before the pandemic, and 7% from other sources such as government spending. And guess what, the republicans stopped any attempt by the Dems at windfall profits taxes on the corps who've been raping Americans wallets.

I’ve had a short paycheck and a boss who couldn’t be bothered to make up the shortage in a timely manner. Since I couldn’t get him to pay me I took him to court and got what I was owed + damages and court costs. I got fired soon after but It was worth watching the judge lay into him and seeing the angry look he had on his face when he handed me the check.
@@terrycuyler5659 Should have sued him again for illegal termination. That's obviously retaliation. Typical awards are 3x lost pay while you're looking for a new job.
This happened at a manufacturing plant I worked at except, everyone was shorted $50 for some insane reason. We ALL went to the front office and let them know if we were not paid in one hour we would walk out the door and we would let the other shifts know about it. We got our money.
Actually you can occupy your work station (depending on local laws of course) and refuse work and refuse to leave making that station unproductive, since you are exercising your right you haven't clocked out so it is also OT.
Yeah, they'd try their best to jam her up for stealing, but I know in my country if it goes to an industrial tribunal the employer would be reprimanded for shorting her salary and would more than likely call it squits, & she'd get to keep her job.

It wouldn't happen in a lot of countries because workers have protection against this kind of stuff. The union would have a field day with a case like this in my country and I think they would give her the money while they sorted it out in court, if it went that far.
You can’t pull that “it’ll be on your next paycheck in California”. Employees have the Labor Board on speed dial 😂😂. We keep checks in the office. Veronica is savage though ✌🏾
There were so many times my paychecks were short with a promise of “next paycheck”. Wouldn’t ya know, there were more taxes taken so it came out less that what was initially short. Crooks!!!
That's... just not how taxes work. Getting the money late can suck, but the amount you pay for taxes on two $1k paychecks vs. $800+$1200 paychecks is exactly the same.
@@ytadventurer9170 it's supposed to be the same rate, yes, but the amounts are not the same when it comes to you net pay. Trust me, it's a not balanced figure. When I get extra pay on my check the taxes is extra. If they separated the check you would see more net pay on the extra money.
@@ytadventurer9170Yep, you're right! Most people don't understand how taxes work. I have a job that has no set hours so I may work a lot of hours one week, and only a few the next. The taxes deducted reflect this. But those are JUST DEDUCTIONS, not the actual taxes. When I file my taxes, the tax amount is based on my total income for the year and I get a refund or have to pay depending. I prefer to pay so that I'm not loaning the government money throughout the year.
The correct way to respond to this is "no pay, no work". No further work will be provided until outstanding debts have been resolved. Time will still be billed as normal.
I’ll just call the electric company and let them know their $200 is coming next month! Cuz they really act like “we can’t do anything “ yeah clearly you can’t even process monthly pay correctly, no wonder fixing ur mistake is too difficult.
Ok, but if your check was $200 short, you paid less tax on that check. And if on your next check you end up paying more tax, it still has nothing to do with the total tax you owe at the end of the year. If you overpaid, you get a refund, if you underpaid, you get to send the goverment even more money.
@@marychrishannon7048I don't freely give interest-free loans to anyone. If you get paid $200 extra dollars on 1 paycheck, that bumps your effective tax rate up by $10,400 for that paycheck ($200 x 52 weeks) which may put you in a different tax bracket. Whatever money taken on that paycheck as taxes belongs to the government for up to 16 months, you can't get it back or otherwise use it to pay bills or live until the following April. It doesn't work out in your favor, don't spread misinformation if you don't understand how hourly taxes and payroll work. Anyone taking your advice will end up with less money for the rest of the year until tax day, and most people need every dollar they can get.
It might, to a VERY SMALL level, increase your marginal tax rate. But at the same time it LOWERED your tax rate for this week. Unless the amount underpaid is a large portion of your income, the difference will be pennies. Progressive tax rates only have a few steps, so its unlikely for $200 to change the rate at all. And the truth is that in April when you file your tax return any small diffetence will be refunded. It sucks if you live literally paycheck to paycheck to be shorted a $, but in the end, it costs you nothing in taxes. So, unless this happens regularly, its a dumb solution to commit theft, lose your job and get a criminal record. And yes, it IS firing to remove company assets and sell them, even to settle a legitimate wages dispute. Far better to quit and demand severance for 'constructive firing'. Even in the US, failing to pay a worker on time is considered unjust termination.

I know the stealing is not a real suggestion and they should probably put a disclaimer for people whose brains take things literally... But boy is she cutthroat. I love these Veronika skits.
PS: Theft is no solution and a crime on top. You can take interest rates on the money they owe you, if it is possible, and instead discussing this with the manager - who has no power over that situation at all, you could go straight to paycheck department and sort it out with the right people
Yep. You do NOT get the upper hand by stealing. Two wrongs don't make it right. Keep demanding your money. They can get it to you within 24 hours. I know because I've been in that boat before.
@@hellstromcarbunkle8857 No the manager won't. An issue was brought to her attention and she followed the correct channels to get that money back to her as soon as she could. Veronika is reasonably upset, and acted out in a malicious and illegal manner. Veronika is going to jail alone.
Yeah, this is definitely one of the more over-the-top comedic ones versus one of the more practical ones (like the stuff about keeping detailed records of convos to make sure folks can't slander and gaslight you quite as easily).
Living in a two-party consent state, I would bring in an obvious recording device, set it down, press Play, and state "For the record..." before getting into the nitty-gritty of whatever the problem is.
Veronica gets fired and prosecuted for theft, spending a night in jail before spending savings or maxing out a credit card to bond out…she hires a criminal defense attorney and an employment lawyer, going into massive debt. She sues the employer for wage theft and retaliatory discharge, litigation takes two years, she loses her car and her apartment. She eventually wins a little money. The lawyers make bank. The End.
The supervisor should have caught the time clock issue prior to approving her timesheet. The issue could have been rectified before payroll was processed for the pay period.
lol, maybe in your state (assuming you live in the state of Confusion). This is a civil matter. Think about it. People would get mad at their employer and have the cops come arrest people all the time. When I was in the Army decades ago, they did this sort of thing ALL THE TIME. I once just didn’t get paid for half a month and never recovered it. I know lots of vets the Army ripped off.
You cant 'have them arrested' because of a payroll error. You have no comprehension how police operate (its not as your debt collector) Your choice is to negotiate, go to your state department of labor wages and hours division, or quit and sue them.
@@werewolf1336 how many times did you change duty stations? I was active 88 to 92. It happened when I came back from Korea. There were delays on other changes. I suspect there was a whole different system in the 70’s. You guys likely got paid based on where you were on payday by the local finance unit and they balanced it later. We were paid from some central office and they had all sorts of checks and balances.
This incident is raising concerns about this company’s competency as a valid and honest employer. I think I will need to start looking for other companies that can handle simple payroll mistakes in a timely manner and also have a discussion with the labor board and my lawyer.
I had this happen to me once when I worked at a bank. They shorted me $120. I brought it up with my manager and she said I would get my shortage the next pay period. Oh, so the bank can be late paying me without penalty, but if I'm late on my credit card payment I get charged a late fee and it gets reported to the credit bureaus? Make it make sense!
Well they can definitely issue the 200 now as a special circumstance. Taking 200 dollars worth of stuff would be criminal. It sucks but there are legal remedies
Usually Veronica would have a smarter solution to her situation, like going to HR, but straight up stealing wasn't really the best option here. Not really a valuable lesson. She's just going to go to jail.
If you work for an organization where there is so little trust between you and the administration, you need to move on. Trying to take justice into your own hands presents all kinds of legal problems, and believe me, if you have to go to court over it, the court does not pay you to hang out for many hours trying to get justice. You will end up losing a lot of time as well as your money. And if you steal from those you perceive as theives, they are better at it than you, and you will end up in misery, and lose. Move on if you are in such a bad-trust situation. It's better to be unemployed than to be employed by someone you perceive as an enemy.
Oooh no 🤣 Veronica just picked up a whole theft charge 🤣 2 wrongs don’t make a right is a real legal precedent… but some hypothetical judge will be the one to let Veronica know that though. 😁✌️ Veronica would need a receipt to prove she only took $200 worth of stuff to protect herself, but idk officer… she didn’t ring out and she may have taken $1000s worth 🤷♂️
I don't know why I was expecting this to turn out as a Family Guy parody of the episode in which Brian owing Stewie money and Stewie beats the crap out of him twice. "Where's my money?! I want my money man. I'm tired of you ducking me man. You got money for Starbucks. Where's my money?!"
irony this happened to me and my boss did same got on my next pay check. then he gave me money to cover my bills and groceries until that next check came in and pay him back. irony company shorted him as well.
Although I wish this was a solution, the law doesn’t see it like that. The way they see it is that she should have went to small claims courts and sued them for the money. All Veronica did was her getting arrested. Unfortunately 😒, deep down in my bones I wish we could do this. 😣
The thing is she would have her money in 2 weeks, and it takes longer than that to get a court date. It sucks, but not worth getting fire to get all final pay in 72 hours, plus possible jail time and penalties.
You do not get to pick how you are compensated. I would have contacted payroll directly. Usually the managers do not know what options payroll has to correct the problem. $200 is enough money that the payroll department should consider getting the money to you today or tomorrow.
Don't commit a crime in retaliation for a crime. File a complaint with the Federal Labor Relations Authority (FRLA). They take payroll shenanigans SERIOUSLY. They tend to come in assuming the employee was the damaged party.
Something like this happened to me once, I was something like £300 short on my pay. My manager stopped me as I came into work. She apologised to me, at this point I wasn't even aware I was short on my pay. Next she asked if I would take cash, I said yes. Then she opened one of the tills and paid me on the spot all the while saying she'd take it up with payroll and find out where they'd screwed up. Its nice to have a boss who knows how to do their job.
I had this happen. The funny thing is that the system the company used...hit EVERYONE and docked a full days pay because the timecard system didnt register anyone. The head office had to cut an emergency check for everyone at our office within 12 hours. Then it happen again, but hit 4 other stores. At that point the office has us use old time cards as a secondary once the first time happens, just to have a physical paper trail. All roads lead to the software payroll was using and had a subscription license. Lets just say the company had to settle our of court( our company sued the payroll company for issues around the system), we got a new payroll system. However the company also instituted monthly audits using both digital and physical time cards.
This happened to most of our shop, they went on the PA and announced it. Told us to fill out a sheet and it will be fixed by next check. We went on 4th of July break and when we came back the plant had been auctioned. We also lost our upcoming paycheck in addition to our earlier shortage. The IRS wouldn't even let me claim it as a loss as it wasn't enough. It was a months paychecks.
I wish I had a dollar (used to be a dime) for every time my paycheck was either shorted or absent completely, over the years. Never an overage. Like the stores, they never undercharge you, it's always an overcharge.
Why attribute to malice what can be easily explained by ineptitude? The most likely scenario is that they are incompetent and didn’t file the paperwork for the extra $200 she earned in time.
Yeah, when this happened to me years ago, I made a call to our local Dept. of Labor & Wages office and I quickly got a call from the boss that they had my check ready for me. Didn't stay there long.
Stealing out of spite is a malicious act and is prosecutable. Whereas a clerical error is an error and can be argued it wasn't malicious, even if it was. You have to prove it was malicious. Don't steal like Veronica. That was a bad move.
I'd give them 24 hours to give me my money and if they didn't then they could have a nice little conversation with the labor board.

Veronica goes to jail
I have bills due now.. write me a check and hand it to me tf
Give that lady her money 💴
I know the stealing is not a real suggestion and they should probably put a disclaimer for people whose brains take things literally... But boy is she cutthroat. I love these Veronika skits.
PS: Theft is no solution and a crime on top. You can take interest rates on the money they owe you, if it is possible, and instead discussing this with the manager - who has no power over that situation at all, you could go straight to paycheck department and sort it out with the right people
I love that next paycheck line sure I'll pay double tax
Veronica went too far this time.
Peace sign and smile for the camera had me rolling.
Yeah that gets you fired and arrested.
Yep. You do NOT get the upper hand by stealing. Two wrongs don't make it right. Keep demanding your money. They can get it to you within 24 hours. I know because I've been in that boat before.
@@KimberlyLetsGo She tried that. The company is stealing. Period. O.K. she'll be arrested. And so will manager. NOT negotiable.
@@hellstromcarbunkle8857 No the manager won't. An issue was brought to her attention and she followed the correct channels to get that money back to her as soon as she could. Veronika is reasonably upset, and acted out in a malicious and illegal manner. Veronika is going to jail alone.
@@hellstromcarbunkle8857 I hope you have bail money!
Yeah, this is definitely one of the more over-the-top comedic ones versus one of the more practical ones (like the stuff about keeping detailed records of convos to make sure folks can't slander and gaslight you quite as easily).
Veronica is gonna be fired😅
Living in a two-party consent state, I would bring in an obvious recording device, set it down, press Play, and state "For the record..." before getting into the nitty-gritty of whatever the problem is.
Hopefully BEFORE you resort of theft right?
Veronica gets fired and prosecuted for theft, spending a night in jail before spending savings or maxing out a credit card to bond out…she hires a criminal defense attorney and an employment lawyer, going into massive debt. She sues the employer for wage theft and retaliatory discharge, litigation takes two years, she loses her car and her apartment. She eventually wins a little money. The lawyers make bank. The End.
Next time Veronica won’t be so nice, got it??!! 👊
Her next job becauce she will fired and owe them the actual cost to replace the stolen property not the little bit she got on eBay.
“Heh, heh… you KNOW not to mess with my money, right? Heh heh heh..”
I love Veronika. Girlfriend doesn't take sh!t from anyone. 😅
Omg i had this issue at my last job ALL THE DAMN TIME and reacted the same way.... except the company theft and they called me Veronica every time 😂😂😂
The supervisor should have caught the time clock issue prior to approving her timesheet. The issue could have been rectified before payroll was processed for the pay period.
Yep. But coulda, woulda, shoulda. Life happens and companies have procedures for this problem.
Legally a check needs to be cut immediately. Other than that, have them arrested.
lol, maybe in your state (assuming you live in the state of Confusion). This is a civil matter. Think about it. People would get mad at their employer and have the cops come arrest people all the time.
When I was in the Army decades ago, they did this sort of thing ALL THE TIME. I once just didn’t get paid for half a month and never recovered it. I know lots of vets the Army ripped off.
You cant 'have them arrested' because of a payroll error. You have no comprehension how police operate (its not as your debt collector) Your choice is to negotiate, go to your state department of labor wages and hours division, or quit and sue them.
@@nunyabidness3075 DAMN! Were we in the same Army (USA - '71 thru '74) Never happened to me once in 3 years of service.
@@werewolf1336 how many times did you change duty stations? I was active 88 to 92. It happened when I came back from Korea. There were delays on other changes. I suspect there was a whole different system in the 70’s. You guys likely got paid based on where you were on payday by the local finance unit and they balanced it later. We were paid from some central office and they had all sorts of checks and balances.
This incident is raising concerns about this company’s competency as a valid and honest employer. I think I will need to start looking for other companies that can handle simple payroll mistakes in a timely manner and also have a discussion with the labor board and my lawyer.
Do... Not... Mess... With... Veronica's MONEY!
I had this happen to me once when I worked at a bank. They shorted me $120. I brought it up with my manager and she said I would get my shortage the next pay period. Oh, so the bank can be late paying me without penalty, but if I'm late on my credit card payment I get charged a late fee and it gets reported to the credit bureaus? Make it make sense!
time to go to the labor board
Well they can definitely issue the 200 now as a special circumstance.
Taking 200 dollars worth of stuff would be criminal. It sucks but there are legal remedies
Usually Veronica would have a smarter solution to her situation, like going to HR, but straight up stealing wasn't really the best option here. Not really a valuable lesson. She's just going to go to jail.
FEMA?
@@calisongbird I just looked it up and realized my mistake. Lol
If you work for an organization where there is so little trust between you and the administration, you need to move on. Trying to take justice into your own hands presents all kinds of legal problems, and believe me, if you have to go to court over it, the court does not pay you to hang out for many hours trying to get justice. You will end up losing a lot of time as well as your money. And if you steal from those you perceive as theives, they are better at it than you, and you will end up in misery, and lose. Move on if you are in such a bad-trust situation. It's better to be unemployed than to be employed by someone you perceive as an enemy.
I’m all about Veronica, but uhhh, homegirl about to get fired.
Oooh no 🤣 Veronica just picked up a whole theft charge 🤣
2 wrongs don’t make a right is a real legal precedent… but some hypothetical judge will be the one to let Veronica know that though. 😁✌️
Veronica would need a receipt to prove she only took $200 worth of stuff to protect herself, but idk officer… she didn’t ring out and she may have taken $1000s worth 🤷♂️
I don't know why I was expecting this to turn out as a Family Guy parody of the episode in which Brian owing Stewie money and Stewie beats the crap out of him twice. "Where's my money?! I want my money man. I'm tired of you ducking me man. You got money for Starbucks. Where's my money?!"
I loved that episode 🤣🤣🤣🤣❗
Veronika is the mob😂
This exactly what creators should do with TH-cam - some already are. 😎
Wow. Veronica, stealing would get you fired. Just report your job.
J u st call the labor board. Veronica will get in trouble otherwise.
Depends on what country you live in as to whether there's a "labor board" to call.
50 years of working I have never been shorted.
200 dollars is written $200, not 200$.
Not really it depends on what country you're in. In Britain they put the currency symbol after the number.
Love Veronica
I thought she was going to go all Stewie on the manager for a second there.
Veronika is hell…lol.
I undestand, but my lawyer understands better.😂
irony this happened to me and my boss did same got on my next pay check. then he gave me money to cover my bills and groceries until that next check came in and pay him back. irony company shorted him as well.
This is what happens when you’re living pay check to paycheck.
Although I wish this was a solution, the law doesn’t see it like that. The way they see it is that she should have went to small claims courts and sued them for the money. All Veronica did was her getting arrested. Unfortunately 😒, deep down in my bones I wish we could do this. 😣
The thing is she would have her money in 2 weeks, and it takes longer than that to get a court date. It sucks, but not worth getting fire to get all final pay in 72 hours, plus possible jail time and penalties.
@@selbarton I agree 100% it sux 😣, we’re damned if you do and we’re damned if we don’t. No win 🤦🏽♀️
You do not get to pick how you are compensated. I would have contacted payroll directly. Usually the managers do not know what options payroll has to correct the problem. $200 is enough money that the payroll department should consider getting the money to you today or tomorrow.
I thought Veronica was going to beat Janet's ass like Stewie did to Brian when he didn't have his money.
EPIC VERONICA
"Where's my money! You got my money!? Tired of you making a fool of me,man, I want my money!" -Stewie Griffin
So we can add "intent" to the list of concepts Veronika has trouble with. No wonder she didn't get that promotion.
Don't commit a crime in retaliation for a crime. File a complaint with the Federal Labor Relations Authority (FRLA). They take payroll shenanigans SERIOUSLY. They tend to come in assuming the employee was the damaged party.
Something like this happened to me once, I was something like £300 short on my pay. My manager stopped me as I came into work. She apologised to me, at this point I wasn't even aware I was short on my pay. Next she asked if I would take cash, I said yes. Then she opened one of the tills and paid me on the spot all the while saying she'd take it up with payroll and find out where they'd screwed up. Its nice to have a boss who knows how to do their job.
I had this happen. The funny thing is that the system the company used...hit EVERYONE and docked a full days pay because the timecard system didnt register anyone.
The head office had to cut an emergency check for everyone at our office within 12 hours. Then it happen again, but hit 4 other stores. At that point the office has us use old time cards as a secondary once the first time happens, just to have a physical paper trail.
All roads lead to the software payroll was using and had a subscription license.
Lets just say the company had to settle our of court( our company sued the payroll company for issues around the system), we got a new payroll system. However the company also instituted monthly audits using both digital and physical time cards.
Veronica youre so weong here girl. she should be fired. I will fire her….
This happened to most of our shop, they went on the PA and announced it. Told us to fill out a sheet and it will be fixed by next check. We went on 4th of July break and when we came back the plant had been auctioned. We also lost our upcoming paycheck in addition to our earlier shortage. The IRS wouldn't even let me claim it as a loss as it wasn't enough. It was a months paychecks.
Veronica is a gutsy woman. I would hate to be her husband.
You must be a weak man.
Yeah. I imagine he would have to be paying bail for her.
“You’re not supposed to do that”
Acting like Veronica is going to get a lot of people fired…..
I wish I had a dollar (used to be a dime) for every time my paycheck was either shorted or absent completely, over the years. Never an overage. Like the stores, they never undercharge you, it's always an overcharge.
…V is my HERO!
They with held it so they can collect interest off of it!
Okay, I'll bite. Do the calculations: assuming a 4.5% APR on $200 in the bank for 2 weeks, how much interest is that? 75 cents? LMFAO 😅😂
@@scottgursteinYes but imagine this is a national company with 100,000 employees and doing it to every 4th employee on a 4 paycheque rotation
@@zbigniewczaykowski514 how very conspiratorial of you! LOL 😅
Why attribute to malice what can be easily explained by ineptitude? The most likely scenario is that they are incompetent and didn’t file the paperwork for the extra $200 she earned in time.
This Veronica sounds way too familiar - like one of MY specific family members
The chance of me (a non partner/owner manager) paying an employee out of my own pocket is exactly 0.0%.
Possibly?! You were going to “possibly” email me….
This happens to us sometimes and we offer to correct next check. But also can write a petty cash check rhythm day if the employee needs it.
Yep that's my company.
Yeah, when this happened to me years ago, I made a call to our local Dept. of Labor & Wages office and I quickly got a call from the boss that they had my check ready for me. Didn't stay there long.
Stealing out of spite is a malicious act and is prosecutable. Whereas a clerical error is an error and can be argued it wasn't malicious, even if it was. You have to prove it was malicious. Don't steal like Veronica. That was a bad move.
into her own hands
had a minimum wage job once where mgmt didn't realize minimum wage had gone UP. we waited two weeks to have it corrected on the next check
My past job over paid me $1000s and then they made me pay it back but in installments of my choosing. It was a nice sized loan 😂
It's been 24 hours..... Got my money...
