tiamatladyDragging my heels today has cost me my paycheck.
Well not permanently.
There's noone here to sign checks, so I can't get paid today. The problem with being the contractor is that you have to wait for the invoice to be processed, and the check cut and signed. Well, two of those three steps are mine, but not the signature.
The bossman will not be back today. So I have to wait til my next day in to get my check.
Which will be Friday.
Ok, this is NOT a major deal, actually.
I'm getting a small check tonight. A small one on Wednesday.
I have enough in the account to pay the bills that need paying. Plus a little extra for ManRay and some food. Maybe even a drinkie on Wednesday too.
I just wanted to get a leg up on this month - by sending out all my bills now, so I hhave to deal with the rest when it comes. Yes I can still do this on Friday, or at least prepare myself for Friday. This also gives me a chance to rethink how much I've billed them (Although I think I'm cutting the check today so that if the boss doesn't come in on Friday I have the check waiting.)
*sighs* I had a feeling I didn't need to come in at all. But I did. I have work to do, and, bonus, I'm alone for the moment. it's nice and quiet (except I just discovered the computer has built in speakers, so I'm going to stream some music) and I can just work without being distracted.
Blows about my check tho. oh well.
