Why dont you ask for money and then go finish the job?

 

[Turin39789]

My boss gets mad at me when I don't show up for work too. Were you supposed to be there that day?

 

[Jeeebus]

your biggest concern is whether somebody, in 2006, can track down another person in the same town as them based on their name???? Are you serious?

What was the original deal you made with him? If you were paid to "make this" then you need to do so.

 

[waggy]

lets see. you were paid to do something. Do not show up. he gets pissed and now you want to ignore him?

fvck. i hope he finds you and sues the hell out of you.

 

[Captante]

Ignore him being a jerk & finish the job ... since he's local this could end up being a lot more of a PITA then its worth.

 

[MichaelD]

What about your father's reputation? What right do you have to ruin it? B/C that's what will happen if you leave this customer flat.

Finish the job, do a good job and never deal with him again. Screw this guy and he'll ruin you rep in your town.

Sorry, but you asked a question & we answered ... if you didn't want to know what we think then you should have just kept quiet!

 

[waggy]

oh now because we are not on yoru side you want to delete the thread? "whaa whaa they are not saying its a good thing! whaaa!"


yeah you should have known AT would get on your ass when you want to be a dis-honest person.

i really really hope he sues you into bankruptcy. hopefuly you have enough money to take a business ethics class.

 

[blackdogdeek]

looks like i missed some quickly dealt pwnage.

anyone have the OP?

 

[Turin39789]

So you:


Got paid in advance to do a job.

Skipped out on a day of work.

The person who paid you to do the job complained.

You decided to be a punk and now don't want to do the job because he's a jerk for wanting the job finished.

Posted on ATOT.

Got told you were being stupid and you're going to cause a mess of trouble if you don't man up and fulfill your obligations.

Edited your post and went to sulk on the day off you gave yourself because no one here told you it was ok to be a baby.


right?

 

[mugs]

Damnit people, why doesn't anyone quote the OP in threads like this!

Well you're not the kind of person I would approach in public. Then again all balding 40 somethings' are less aggressive in public...

Turin39789, it's my fault for being too brief.

 

[Captante]

I'm not sure how this ended up being our fault here ... all I can tell you is that If I had hired you to do a job & you didn't show up to do it I'd be pretty pissed off, however if you didn't show up one time I'd have given you the benefit of a doubt.

If you decided to blow the job off completely though, not only would I take legal action for breach of contract (wether written or verbal) but I would file a complaint with the Police & do everything possible to tarnish your reputation & see to it you got no more local work.

Finally, I'm 42 & I'd say EXACTLY these words to your face.

I didnt quote the op but the gist was.


"I've got this jerk customer who is throwing a fit because I didn't show up for a day. Now because he's being a jerk I'm thinking about blowing off the job, he didn't overpay me so we should be even if I just stop working now."

Not quite it but close

How do you mean too brief. If I'm misunderstanding the situation please give us all of the details, otherwise I have a feeling this is going to be a popular thread with the big DELETE tag on top. Right now you look like you were a dick, I'm more than willing to change my opinon if I have the facts wrong.

 

[MichaelD]

Boooo! No fair deleting the OP! :| Take your lumps like a man.

I don't feel like going to work tomorrow...think I won't go. Come to think of it, I'm supposed to pick my coworker up at the airport at 10:30...I don't feel like it. I'm gonna let him take a cab...when he sees that I didn't show up or call him.

And you know what? I could really use that $$$ I pay in child support every month. I think I won't send it this month! Hey, I like the OP's style of living! So...whimsical and carefree!

yeap. right now he looks like a scam artist or a lazy unethical idiot.

 

[Pastore]

You are a dick based on the replies to this thread. Quick! Redeem yourself!

 

[skyking]

OP, all you can do now is man up and go back, finish the job. Come back with proof and you MIGHT be spared

QFT ... Posting this was a bad idea to begin with, BUT trying to weasel out of the OP by editing it away was even worse!
