Wage disputes are always tough.  If you complain, do you get fired?  If you don't complain, you keep getting shafted.  Hopefully you've kept your resume up to date and are looking for other options b/c this employer isn't one you want to keep working for if they play games with your paycheck.  You could complain to the California department of labor or the federal department of labor.  Each has a wage and hour division. One thing employers don't want is the government looking into their wage practices.  You could give your employer an ultimatum -- pay me correctly and on time or you'll file a complaint.
