Why did you leave after 5 hours?
Was it a trial ir had your employment started?
Have you asked them when you will be paid?

my shift finished after 5 hours (10pm) it wasnt a trial, i clocked in and out, i have the receipt which shows how many hours i worked etc, i havent contacted them since my first shift.
was this your official start off day? if so you should be paid for the hours you did even tho you never came back.

Did you clock out or let the manager know your shift was up?

Did you tell them you wouldn't be coming back?

When did you work - was it in November, or longer ago?

You probably won't be getting any money, and rightly so.

You will need to speak to the manager and ask for your money.

The OP has wasted their time - they'll have been trained, only for them to never return. Why should they get any money?
how was working their like on your first day? i know you have not been there long enough to properly know but what are your thoughts?

Because they worked a five hour shift.

Do you get paid weekly or every two weeks? look at the contract you had to sign

regardless anyway you should get paid because on the system you did clock in and out and the manager was aware you had o go home.

Even though you did not turn up for the rest days you did your fair share on the fisrt day of your shift

You've hardly been a model employee. This said you've done the work and are probably entitled to the pay. Contact them and ask them what's the plan.

I'm sure a company as large as Burger King could wiggle out of it. The costs of training the OP will have significantly outweighed the wages for a 5 hour shift.

Regardless, OP cannot simply walk out of a job like this in future; it's incredibly unprofessional.
