Last month my co-worker was furious as fuck that I didn’t report our workers’ days off in the system that calculates their salary accordingly to days missed and sick leaves and stuff, and yelled at me for twenty minutes that I should always do it during the third week of the month because if I do it on the last week it’ll be too late and the workers’ salaries won’t show it that month but a month later and there’ll be problems cause they’ll come in and demand we tell them why their next month’s salary is less and we’ll have to dig up month-old reports to prove they still got the money they should’ve.
So today, on the 29th of March the substitute supervisor of our workers comes in to tell me it’s raining so it’s a special kinda like… it’s not a day off, it’s not a sick leave, it’s when factors beyond the employees’ or employers’ control makes working impossible (like rain). They get a reduced salary for those days and they can go home.
So I tell this sub supervisor that okay, obviously, I’ll give him a form to get the workers to sign so we can show them they agreed to the reduced salary so there are no problems later. I also ask him to tell the workers that this reduction won’t show on their salaries until their April salary.
Obviously, then my co-worker barges in like why wouldn’t it show? So I tell her what she told me a literal month ago, that since this is happening today I can only report it to the system for calculation today and according to my co-worker the 29th of a month is too late. So then my co-worker proceeds to drag me in front of the sub supervisor that I’m an idiot and I’m spreading lies and fear among the workers.
