Finding an empty stocking...

 

When the her pay came up short of what she expected, she went back to the logs she had made of her work time.


The difference was significant. It now seems they have shorted her hours and not paid for overtime as required by Texas law.


She tried to get through to the managers at Sepia. Instead all she was able to do was leave messages... this would become a pattern.


I converted her paper logs into a spreadsheet and e-mailed it to one of their managers. In addition to this we left multiple messages on the manager’s voice mail and with the receptionist asking for a call back and verification of receipt. For weeks,  neither the messages or the voice mail were responded to by that manager.




This story and this site are a personal story about what I saw and heard during this time period and the experience I personally had in trying to get through to Sepia and help my mother get paid. There is certainly more to the story and I hope they will come forward with that side of the story. I for one would welcome an explanation. More importantly though, I hope they will just choose to pay my mother what is due to her. Before making any decisions about Sepia as a company you should search for other similar stories on the Internet and try to hear their side of this story as well. I’d be more than happy to post a link to any response they want  to make. Since  this site is being updated in real-time, some information may be out of date. Even when updates exist in one place, they may not have been posted in others.
