A: You are entitled to payment for all hours worked. Since you quit, you are entitled to payment of all compensation earned are entitled to waiting penalties equal 1 day's pay for each day late up to a max of 30 days.

Unfortunately, your "ghosting" the employer makes the date of your quit a bit uncertain.
