Did Gensei give you 100% of your pay or did they withhold taxes, social security, etc?

I hope you didn't end up owing the IRS too... they're not very forgiving (so I've heard).

Wayne . . .you know much better than me, the "military prone brain" of BB.


It's obvious that you know nothing of the Military and insulting all who have served to protect you doesn't make you look clever.

Regards.

When they paid me, which was usually a month late and with excuses (multiple lost transfers and "it's Thierry's fault", then bad checks), they did not take out any taxes, meaning I had to make a payment to the IRS in April for ~$9600 dollars.



Owch!!!  I bet that REALLY didn't help your position.  After several months with no paycheque, you probably were not in a good position to pay any taxes.  :-(

Bank charges for NSF cheques no doubt added to you woes.

Darrin,

I believe you misunderstood the comment from FrAmiga.  He is not insulting the Military at all.  He is pointing out that Bill Buck's mindset is to see everything by "military strategies".  You know, he sees people as pawns, not employees.  He sees business situations as battles rather than potential means to an end.

Wayne


Yep, Sorry Wayne, sorry everyone, sorry FrAmiga.  Kneejerk reaction.  My itchy trigger-finger!!!  Sorry...

sorry to you too Darrin :-) but when i speak about BB, i become in a bad mood.


That's OK.  I'm just grumpy too.  I have a stinker of a cold and my wife has one too so I'm not getty "any" tonight.

This whole situation is beyond a joke.  So much money has been pissed away with in-house fighting when a joint effort would have achieved so much more.

I lived from paycheque to paycheque long enough to know that missing one can be the worst thing in the world.  Missing 2 or three could spell the end of the world for someone.  I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

I don't think you have any "incoming" to hide from, people are just a bit wound up and prone to react without thinking fully.
