All employers pay employees in arrears. They do this, since when/if you leave, then your last paycheck can be deducted for anything you owe them, like uniforms, materials or keys as an example.
So your 1st paycheck paid in the 2nd month was for your 1st month. 2nd check for the 3rd month was paid on the 2nd paycheck. Have you looked at your prior paychecks, since usually will show for the period of X date to X date, but are paid (later/current).
So when they terminate or you quit, then your (last) paycheck should show the last days you worked and owed. Sick line? Sounds like you were off for being sick, and they may have (deducted) those days/hours? Once again, you need to look at your prior pay stubs, since many times will show X amount paid under vacation, PTO, or sick time vs hours worked.
You were employed by contract and you expect an answer without the benefit of our reading that contract? Are you for real?
Your FIRST pay was for the FIRST month you worked. Your SECOND pay was for the SECOND month you worked. The same applies for EVERY month you worked, I seriously doubt there is a legal provision in your contract that allows them to not pay for ANY time actually worked, but I can't see the contact.
Hang on while I read your contract to see. Oh, wait. YOU are the only one who has a copy. Maybe YOU could read it and see what it says.
I don't know. I haven't seen the contract.
