Background - been typing for a Chicagoland MTSO for over seven years now. Invoices are sent 15th and end of month and paid 30 days later. For the most part, invoices are received on a pretty regular basis, but there have been notable delays explained away by the Chicago Post Office is the worst in the nation. Fast forward to today; in the past two months I have received exactly ONE invoice - the rest have been delayed because of the Chicago PO or lost in the mail so stop payment (supposedly) on the oldest check and reissuance. It was supposedly mailed 08/15 and now seven mailing days later I still do not have it. I have sent polite e-mails to the accounting person but I keep being told to wait 10 business days before a new check can be cut. In the meantime, college tuition is due and bank account is dwindling. I am in the process of looking for another MTSO but in the meantime, general consensus on how long you would wait for a check. I have a long history with this MTSO and don't really want to go the labor and wage board route but I am getting kind of fed up...I can't work for free! |
