Plus Im sure even though Ive paid into my health ins. through work for over a decade I will be deluged with unwanted mail and bills when its done.
Check out a product called Wobenzym for inflammation and joint pain. It works very well in place of aspirin. You have to look for it in a health food store or order it online, but it’s very good for most pain when aspirin can’t be used.

It is a shame.

My father knows that situation all too well.

I wish you and the family the best.

Employees have to be paid. If boss forgot yesterday, then boss needs to take care of it today. The payroll "system" is no excuse for having to wait another week.

^^^ I totally agree! I believe it's state law here, and employees can demand a check or cash within 24hrs.

However in this day and age employees don't or can't demand much from their company even if it is the law; losing their job is always something over their heads..........

LL123 I hope your hubby is looking for a new job that is a major sign a company having trouble when short on payroll and hiring younger workers at less pay.
