I worked 3 days and quit and I didnt get paid?

Question

I am 17. I worked for 18 hours total and I hurt myself so I quit. The manager never told me to punch in or punch out so all I did was go to work the time I was supposed to go there and leave when I was supposed to, the manager knew all 3 days I was working and when I left. I think I was supposed to get paid today because she said every second friday and I started working

before last friday, I didnt get paid so do you think I should wait till next friday or do you think theyre not paying me?

Answer 1

They are required to pay you.  If they pay every other Friday, then next week wouldn't be a normal payday so I'd be surprised if you got paid then.  It's not unusual if you're paid hourly to not get paid on the first payday, but even then you should get it in two weeks.  I'd call and ask the manager.

Answer 2

You should get paid on the regular payday for the time you worked.  If you got hurt while working you should be covered by workers compensation insurance.
