(Maryland laws only)
My boss initially low-balled me on pay rate, because he knew I needed a job - my wife and I were pregnant. He knew I wouldn't say No to the opportunity. There were initial promises of going hourly to salary, competetive salary rate after 90 days, paid holidays, and accumulation of vacation days - none of which came to fuition. Eventually, he offered to pay for licensing costs & schooling.
After a year, I took another job, with a better company, with family benefits beginning on my first day and a slightly better salary.
Now, my boss wants to deduct the school's cost from my final paycheck, because I'm not "fulfilling my responsibility to the company".
Should I confront him or just not come in my last few days? The amount of days I'd be paid for working at the end approximately equals the amount I "owe" the company.
Is withholding that money legal or should I even have to repay it, if there is no business/employment agreement?
