    I've only ever been paid at the end of the first month. Now, given that we're part way through the month he needs to check what the payroll deadline is - in a small company it may be more flexible than in a large one. And it's possible he'll be told that he'll be paid at the end of October for that month and the time he's worked this month. If that's the case, no harm in asking for an advance to tide him over!

    Good lesson for him to learn in terms of taking advice from your parents and then going and speaking to the boss!

    Thanks Savvy.

    I'll keep what you said in mind about the pay.

    Hi,

    Both me and his dad said it was madness what his boss was asking and although he was desperate for a job, to tell him he wouldn't be taking it.

    He went to see him this morning, and told him, and the boss said he did want him to work for him so he's putting him on the books, and he starts on Monday.

    We don't know why he didn't want to do that in the first place. Anyway, he'll be paid monthly, but he hasn't told him yet if he'll be paid a month in advance. Is this usual, or do people get paid at the end of the first month?
