Aloha Mr. O.
This was an anomaly. Usually, the way it works, when there is a holiday, and it will interfere with the distribution of payroll, the County employees' payments are deposited (pending) on the Friday/weekend before the holiday occurs, so that they post and are either available before, or show up immediately on, the last day of the month or 15th of the month when they are due. Employees do not have to wait because Federal holidays or weekends, "interfere" with payday schedules. However, this time employees did have to wait. No payments were processed. Which is why the County sent a memo out this morning. Payroll payments hit accounts at approx. 16:00 today. The good thing for many, I think, is that those payments were also still dated for today and not tomorrow. Hopefully those who were counting on those payments being there, will not have issues.
