I say 2nd because there are legitimate mistakes that can happen. Software errors do happen and I’ve had a missed check, but the company had it resubmitted and in my bank 2 days later .
Exactly this. There was a pretty infamous outage in 2024 and a couple smaller ones in 2023. I don’t think I know a single working adult that hasn’t had at least one payroll delay for some stupid reasoning. I helped someone troubleshoot an issue that caused all of peoples second paychecks to be delayed. During onboarding they’d tell people to expect a delay in their 2nd paycheck and people just never complained for years. Banking is such a fragile part of infrastructure. It’s strange to imagine someone quitting the second the paycheck didn’t hit their account. I’m anti capitalist as hell and companies are not your family etc etc, but at least make a phone call or something first.
Why wait for 2nd missed? First time the pay is not in my bank account on the due date, I no longer work for the company.
