So I check my account and discovered that I have only half the amount of money I expected I have.
What happened? I just left my old job, and having the foresight that something might go wrong, I called and asked if my pay would be affected. HR said nope. What if I take leaves? No problem. Just go.
Right, so while I go on to my new job feeling happy and satisfied and all that, I made one mistake.
The old job pays for the entire month on the 15th of that month. I thought it was for the 15th of this month to the 15th of the next month. That’s a grievous error. This is how I ended up having to fend off one month with half the amount of pay before the payroll for my new job kicks in (arguably, at the end of the month).
I guess it’s bad form, but I just have to do it. Ask for an advance.
Gah.
That is all.
