So, I was hired on as a “lead bartender” at a brewery in upstate NY. The initial agreement was that I would start at 18/hr + tips and when I was fully involved with the FOH that would be raised to 22/hr + tips.

I never received my second paycheck, and when I checked the app (7shifts) that they use for scheduling/payment purposes, I realized that the apps “estimated wages” function was light, showing that I was making $134.82 for 12.6 hours. Turns out- they had lowered my base pay from 18 to 10.70/hr after the first pay period without telling me.

I’ve since quit, obviously, because absolutely not, but do I have any legal standing as far as being paid what I’m owed?
