Ever had a wrong calculation on your salary?

It's the pay day of my part-time insurance job today and I was surprised to see the number there because it's far lower than the number I had calculated myself. To be honest, I am a bit upset and I am going to ask my manager what's wrong tomorrow. Have you ever had a situation like that? What did you do?

Hello wondericequeen,
I have no experience on this. Normally it is a fixed number to me. I don't have overtime or claims and the salary that I receive every month is fixed amount. Maybe you should check with your manager why yours is lesser than you expect.

i am sorry this happened to you. :(
i hope your situation will be resolved very, very quickly.
i have actually not been paid about 3 times.....
in each of these instances it was the fault of the finance department at my job. it was their mistake.
i was paid after i talked to the person in my department who is in charge of financial matters and the finance department of the company i work for.
whenever this happened to me, i found it very, very stressful.
again, good luck to you, and i hope your situation will be resolved as quickly as possible.

I have had a bad experience once. I was working as a teacher for a private school, and the management used to make us sign a ledger for a higher amount and pay us a considerably lesser amount, that was the usual practice and we knew about it . Every month the salary would be handed over to us in an envelope. Once i got the shock of my life when my envelope had much lesser than what i was supposed to get. I went and told the matter to the administrator and he said that no change was made and i was paid the right amount. It was difficult to convince him and say that i had recd less. But somehow through word of mouth the news reached others and i came to know that the envelope had got exchanged and i had got someone else's salary - who was a newcomer, and it was resolved by the administrator..
