HR Services are a Trip
Working for the Government can be rewarding but also very frustrating when it comes to the HR Dept. Back in mid April I received a Fed Ex letter stating that because I had missed a Child Support payment that they are now taking the Child support out of my pay directly. According to the Divorce settlement that is correct if I'm more than 7 days late the Dept. of Revenue can garnish my wages for the money owed but there was no money owed because I was 1 payment ahead and I was advised not to make that weeks payment. So, I didn't. When I received the letter I immediately went down to the Child Support Enforcement and asked what this was and they said The Dept. of Revenue garnished my wages with no just cause. They gave me paperwork to take to the Dept. of Revenue to prove that the payment wasn't missed and was a clerical error. I went down to the office and spoke to a Counselor and all was fixed but the order was already sent to my HR dept. On April 23, 2009 I went to my HR Dept. at my office and stated that the order needs do be rescinded. They faxed a stoppage of the order but it's now May 27, 2009 and it's still in effect. I called to inquire about the status of the rescinded order and was told the specialist in charge of those orders was out for the day and to call back tomorrow to check the status. I was told by my HR Dept. that a rush to rescind the order was in place. I get paid this Saturday and I hope this is stopped by then. This is Government work so it can take years before it's stopped.
