Not much will happen. Try missing a paycheck. But if I didn't have two bucks to buy my weekly album, I'd go berserk. I got a powerful refresher course on the subject recently, which cost me a major portion of my hair. Here's the story.
Some companies handle payroll in-house.
That's costly but necessary because cash flows into a staffing business in fits and spurts and goes out in a steady stream. The carnage began on Friday morning when one employee called to say that her pay, which was supposed to be deposited directly to her account, wasn't there. I said I'd check on it and call her back. I could not reach a human at the payroll company, so I left a message with the guy in charge. The meeting went fine.
