I’ve been super busy opening another location and haven’t been checking our payroll every week like I normally do. Did a review today and saw we overpaid an employee by $300 last month because he didn’t clock out. It would have doubled his pay so there’s no way he didn’t notice. Asked him and he said “honestly can’t remember when that was,” meaning he was aware of it but chose not to tell us. Would you fire him? We like him but it feels like stealing.
My husband never checks his paycheck. It comes direct deposit. When i was doing our checking found out he was missing one paycheck and was not paid. This was months after. It is your fault not on employee, you can demand to pay it back, if he refuse that is something else. Give him the benefit of the doubt.
