NO. It is against the law. If he has entered into the agreement to pay you once a week and he has lost the time card then he is at fault. Call the Labor board. The number is in the front of the phone book or on line at the department of Labor.You will have your check that day. They frown on that with fines to employers who do this.Plus he will need to reimburse you for any late fees you have incurred do to his negligence.

In the future, make copies of your time card before submitting them to your boss or Payroll Department. If necessary, go to your Human Resources Department and ask them to make a copy and document the day your time card was filed.
A boss who is in charge of Payroll and Human Resources, who you rely on to be up-front and straight with you, may be a formidable adversary.
Many businesses who pay their employees on a two-week pay period require four weeks of work before the first check. You will be paid for your first two weeks and entitled to a two-week paycheck if and when you quit. Most employers will advise you of their pay policy; but, if the policy is not outlined for you, ask.

You don't say where you reside. However here in Canada it is against the labour laws to delay your pay cheque.
Also a question to your boss's employer. Why is he still managing if he can't even get the payroll done on time?

It's not only not fair, it's illegal. You did the work, you need to be paid for it. If they don't know exactly how much you need to be paid, they need to still pay you and maybe later try and calculate if they owe you more or if you owe them.

No, they should give you your check.
If it ends up that you claim too many hours, they can take it off of the next pay. You can't be expected to live a week on no income.

Hell NO! Make them pay now! Or threaten legal action. Also, why is it so unhealthy to eat at Krystal every morning? There is so much to choose from! I love eggs and sausage! Yum!

Its not fair. Inform them of your present predicament and they will get a solution for it. Tell them. Besides, its not your fault.

Sue their asses ... you worked it you need to be paid for it ... what they're doing is illegal ... if you don't have union membership ... seek legal advice
