Yes. go home. What are they going to do, fire you?

Well, it'd be hard to have a class-action lawsuit for being overpaid. Whatever. I'm fucked. That's about the beginning and end of it. I'm fucked and won't be able to afford child care next year. Thanks, job! I appreciate being fucked over my minimal pay for a job that society allegedly values.
And, I know I'm supposed to be appreciative of the fact that I'm not one of the large number of people who weren't paid month after month for the same job.
What irks is that the pay system implemented has not only fucked over thousands of employees, but the district paid multiple millions of dollars for it.
Yay?
It's a put your head in the oven situation.

And my favorite part? The little guy who basically steals childcare from me says, "Have a good holiday."
I stopped and turned around and said, "That's the most absurd thing you can say to someone in my situation." I didn't add "you inconsiderate fuckwad" but it was implied in my glare.

OH! the best part of all of this? The district has been holding a state payment for my national board certification that is $5000 (for last year's work at a Title I low performing school). So in addition to owing them money, they owe me money.
The other issue is that no one knows what their base pay is supposed to be because the way they put it on the pay check is just as one lump sum. Not an hourly rate as they used to do. And my base pay changed 3 times in one year, effective on one date, but entered into the system until 5 months after the fact.
A coworker was told he owed $12,000 but when he got to the meeting, they realized the district actually owed him over $8000.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The whole pay thing for LAUSD is a clusterfuck of massive proportions and I am especially sorry it has to be so difficult for you, Kat. Good Holiday dude can fuck off.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
in addition to owing them money, they owe me money.
For the love of god!
It's not like these are trivial amounts. They're fucking with lives and livelihoods here.
