You dread the same things every payroll week. You’re constantly asking for the same things every week. If you get asked one more time, how many hours have I clocked in this week or calling the same supervisor to tell them that they haven’t approved their employees’ time records, you will lose your mind. You’re tired of illegible handwriting and really wish you could read what people are writing on their timesheets. You’re tired of emailing people to tell them that they calculated their time wrong for their based on their start and end time and letting them know their total hours are less than they submitted.
