<prompt> Human: I think this is the right subreddit?Long story short, my Mother has been working at a Breakfast Cafe in Las Vegas, NV since Feb 2016. Started fine, but paychecks started to come later and later. Now, she hasnt received a paycheck since May 6th 2017. Her boss is supposed to pay her her Charge tips every Friday, but since May 6th, shes received 2 sub 300 checks for her tips. Both of those have bounced. Since May 6th, shes made approx 3000 in tips but has never received them. She still works there and manages to barely get by on her cash tips. Shes been job hunting, but she has yet to even receive any call backs or employment offers. Now, the cafe has been closed for nearly a week, but her boss continues to assure her theyll be open Friday. She went to the Food Stamp office and they recommend she files for unemployment since shes not being paid. Im not sure what to do or what she even can do. Even if she gets approved, the 3 week wait will be hard and shes unsure if shell be able to make ends meet until then.Is there anything that she can do or any assistance that could be available to her? I hope this is the right subreddit. If not, sorry.  <response>: File for unemployment, find another job and file a complaint with the department of labor.
