@Bonnie: Definitely not. I honestly wonder how the company stays afloat with such practices... My dad had to threaten them with retirement quite a few times because of their shitty practices. He did retire eventually, but for some reason or the other(I didn't feel like prying), he decided to return to work. However, he gave them rules and conditions for him returning to work for them.

@Bonnie: It's unlikely, since she's his sister, after all. And him disciplining her... He's too soft at times. I had to personally go to the office once back when I lived farther away(30-45 minute drive) to demand my check. He was heading out and saw me. Treated me like a little kid, saying I was wasting gas and not to come if I wasn't called in. Let it be said, I didn't cause a scene or throw a tantrum. I just asked "Where's my check? It's been over two weeks." and they started checking what was going on. He may be married to my sister, but I was so pissed off.

@Bonnie: Process goes like this: I complete the assignment and fill out the invoice with hours worked, pay per hour, what client it's for, the name of all the screens designed and my signature. I email that, plus the screens, to my boss. Boss passes the invoice to my brother-in-law(he's the owner of the company now, his dad retired) who signs it. Invoice then gets sent off to accounting to get the check made. Once the check is ready, his sister has to sign it. She pretty much only has that job because of daddy dearest. She's useless except when it comes to paying herself. Dad's gotten pissed a few times at how long it's taken for him to get paid because of her antics. After it's signed, I get called to pick it up. Direct deposit can't be done since like I mentioned before, I'm not an official employee. For now, since the invoice has my postal address, to avoid having too much direct interaction, they'll be mailing it to me.

@Bonnie: Biggest hassle has been getting paid sometimes. The person that has to sign the checks is a floozy.

@Bonnie: Almost 8 years.

@Bonnie: My room is my office, so... I've joked with my boss about how I should get a work ID AND an office since I've worked for them for so long, but I don't think they'd actually give me either. I'm not an "official" employee.

@Bonnie: It'll be nice to finally work again.

@Bonnie: Just have to wait for a client to sign off on the paperwork and I can start. Then there's two others in line as well.

@Cowboy Belphie: Nope.

@Cowboy Belphie: No wooloo for me. By the time she was going to buy it, it was out of stock. She kept apologizing.

@Bonnie: Fixed the printer. Somehow the scanner wasn't connecting properly or being recognized, but I managed to solve it. Which is good, because I may have work soon.

@Bonnie: If she actually showed some appreciation for the things I constantly do for her, I wouldn't be as irritated about it.
