So, it seems that the payroll person entered SOMEONE ELSE's check as mine when she did payroll, AND she paid me at the rate I was paid for my last gig not what was negotiated for this gig. To her credit, she cut me a check today which I promptly cashed. But, this is the second time my payroll information has been input incorrectly and I haven't been paid in a timely fashion by this same company. Seriously?

I am constantly stunned at the incredible incompetency of people in industry and business, and their arrogance in not admitting mistakes. Large corporations, the company who manages my condo association -- all make big mistakes, and refuse to even respond.
