So I had to break someone's heart yesterday.

I have been taking care of a blind man since May. He's my most favorite and very dear to my heart. But the agency he's with (PPL) hasn't paid me a dime. They owe me a bit over $1,200 but I kept tending to him because he needs the help.
I've gone back & forth with this agency since the beginning. And this has caused me to get way behind on my bills. Yesterday was my final attempt so I told them I'll see them in court.
In the meantime, I've picked up 21 more hours with the agency I'm with for my weekend clients. (Senior Helpers of Blue Ridge).
So now that David realizes I've finally given up, he's very upset. He probably cried after I left. I cried last night. Because like I said, he's my most favorite.
I have rent to pay and I just can't do it any more. I'll end up losing my apartment.
It hurts.

Did you file a complaint with the labor commission in your state?

@Adrift Doing that tomorrow!

@Tumbleweed Good.
Hopefully With that you won't have to wait to go through the court system.
I know of a business that was reported for cutting hours on people's pay and they did a full audit and had to pay it all back.

@Adrift I was going to take them to small claims court but then I had two people tell me yesterday to report them to the employment commission so when I get off work today, I'm going to the VEC office.
