<prompt> Human: So my father recently acquired a job through a job agency here in philly. Its a medical company called Sharp or something like that. So he worked a total of 7 or so days, and its been a week since he was supposed to receive his check. All the other workers received their checks already, so when he speaks to HR, she belligerently reaponds to him like if you dont want to work here, leave. And when he politely tells her that HR shouldnt speak to him like that, she tells him to F off. Now, when he speaks to the big boss, he doesnt like that my dad is asking where his check is. So he fires him, and tells him to leave. My dad pretty much broke down halfway through this, and this is money he needs. Please, what can he do?EDIT: Father speaked with department of labor, they are helping him and he will recieve his pay soon. Thank you all for the help, i appreciate it :  <response>: From a rpersonalfinance perspective, report this to the state labor office and job agency. He is legally owed that money.From a uProbsAndMayhem perspective, fuck those people. Give your dad a big hug and be as supportive as you can, no one deserves to be treated like that.
