I worked a job for only six weeks then my husband passed and for reasons I decided to leave my job. I was given to T shirts to wear to work, but, the job won't mail my last paycheck for me until I return my t shirts. I'm happy to return the t shirts, but, I'm 300 miles away handling some of my husbands final affairs and I could use my final check. I find this odd that two lousy T shirts and they won't mail me my last $300 check! Is this seem normal? I guess I shouldn't be surprised since we didn't even have warm water and had to buy our own toilet paper...
Just to clear up some things since some people are getting very nasty. I did not live with my husband we had been apart for exactly one year on the day he died. He was a chronic alcoholic and had become violent and verbally physcially abusive. It was a horrible thing to see a brilliant, kind person taken down by this disease. He lost our house, his health, our pets all of his friends and few family he had left. He finally drank himself to death alone in a dirty apartment and his body wasn't found for days until September 3. I am his sole survivor and I needed to go up to the white mountains of NH where he wished to be buried to get his headstone set up and scatter his ashes. This was more important to me than returning to T shirts that they they never even told me I needed to return until I was already in the White Mountains. I hope this clears all the questions up of why I'm such a horrible person and all.......
...I just got a headache reading these posts. Did ANYONE comprehend what the OP explained at all? Or was this this the usual dogpile?
From what I gathered, she was away from the shirts. Her husband may have suddenly passed due to the situation she explained so she didn't have time to ship the shirts back to the job.

An employer can't withhold a check that long.
Typical dogpile on the op. It's particularly disgusting when posters only post to slap someones hand because they feel they're superior and brighter than everyone else.
I still say my suggestion of calling the owner of the company or the company president will get this resolved in short order.

I do sympathize with the OP, but there's only so much that can be done when she's 300 miles from the shirts.
Surely there is someone in the same town as the shirts who could go over to your place, get the shirts and mail them, or drive them over to your former workplace. In the time you have spent monitoring this forum and responding to all the messages, you could have worked this out by now.
What town do you live in? Maybe one of us could do it for you.

Yes, that is the factor the op cannot change. So what can the op change? The person she is dealing with, because that person has no compassion or common sense. Time to bump it up to someone who should have those qualities and see what happens.
