Wage Garnishment

I have been doing great at this job I have had for about a year.  Projects keep me busy and I get to work with wonderful people.  I am considered an asset to the team.  I have been looking forward to a promotion not just for the challenge but mostly for the extra pay.

Now everything is up in the air.  My employer has received communication from the Department of Labor:  my wages are being garnished.  I don’t know the details yet, but it sure has been embarassing.  I wouldn’t blame the management if they start thinking “How can we trust this woman to lead if she can’t even straighten out her own finances?”
