[QUOTE="mahlbowski, post: 2393721, member: 64541"] Agreed! I have worked as a Project Manager and supervisor for the past 9 years at two universities and I have never worked with "supervisors" who appear so out of the loop on the needs of the center. However, this is my first experience working for a business so who am I to judge? Also, I am missing two paychecks (from late August and the first week of September) and HR directed me to my supervisor, he never replied to me when I brought this up. I then went to the front office to sort this out (got called in this morning to drive, then my supervisor called me when I was in the parking lot and told me I was not needed so I figured I would stop it anyway to resolve the paycheck issue.) The front office told me to speak with my supervisor, but to check back with them if he could not help. I spoke with him and he appeared upset that I was even asking him about missing paychecks (he asked who in HR and the front office told me to talk to him.) I then went back to the front office and the women there stated they were sent to my home address (direct deposit had not yet been completed) and that I should have received them. I told her I did not, she called someone else and they verified that two checks were not cashed. She then took my information down and called me later in the day to let me know they would be reissuing the checks. When I asked her if they would be direct deposited or sent via mail as physical checks she replied "that's a good question, I should have asked that." Between two paychecks that I never received, lack of communication, and the lack of work available (still am at least 15 days away from the 30 day mark) I am having serious concerns about this as a viable career choice. I have over 10 years of consistent employment and a masters degree and I'm feeling like none of that matters as I was hired off the street. I'm really making an effort to learn, be patient, and perform well (when I am working) but I'm nervous this isn't the best choice. I'm wondering how anyone who isn't 21 with no other responsibilities can manage this? I'm 33 with a wife and two kids and I have no idea how this will work out. [/QUOTE]
