She works hard for no money…

Today, my job decided not to pay me. I talked to HR about it and they told me it will be “very hard” to fix the issue of my missing paycheck. FML

If they think it's THAT hard, then get the Department of Labor to help them out.

if you don't get it in a timely manner, tell HR it won't be 'very hard' to sue them.

Tell them how easy it will be to bring in a lawyer so you can sue them

same thing happened at my old job. they mistyped my name and address so didn't get the first check and they made it seem like my problem or my fault and tried to convince me to not deal with it.

As others have said, I'm sure the Department of Labor will be very happy to help them find a solution for this problem. Don't give the cheats who employ you any room to duck out on their responsibilities - And if they fire you or reduce your role/opportunities for having involved the DoL, that's retaliation and another report to the DoL. Keep that in mind, because I'm sure if they're trying to just "pooh-pooh" the issue of them not paying you, they'll be shady enough to try to punish you for getting authorities rightly involved.
