Archived Christmas seasonal second check...Huh???

[seasonaljunkie]

So I worked the christmas seasonal last year from start to finish. (well, until they let me go a month before they said i would be done) I picked up my last paycheck from the store and went on my merry way to cash it. I got home and there was a FedEx envelope from wherever pay comes from...for the EXACT SAME AMOUNT as my last check that i had picked up 2 hours before.

The stub said something along the lines of "VAC/PH" on the description of pay. Is this a seasonal bonus check for not quitting or getting fired before you're done?

I cashed it, and had no problem with it, and it showed up in eHR as a paycheck, minus the description. Am I the only one?

It's probably vacation hours that you never used.

Thats what i'm thinking, just happens to be a coincidence that it was similar to the amount of our last official paycheck.

You probably had the same number of vacation hours vs regular hours on the two paychecks.

How do you get vacation pay as a seasonal employee. I thought you had to be around for a few months before even accruing any?

they are entitled to it, depends on hours accured
