so heres the update hortly after i wrote this he sent me a e mail and said to come by and he will pay me so i thought great once i got there and waited for 3 hrs he finally showed up he was in a horrible mood and basically said his business is gone to **** and hes not paying anything for anything anymore....
sooooo.....
ive talked to employment standards after a lengthly conversation of what happened ive been advised to take him to court as they feel like i can easily proove my case.
today i went down to the colurt house and got the papers ill fill them out tonight i explained my case showed them what i have they also feel like its worth my time there will be some colurt fees but he will have to pay those ill have to cover my own fees for lost time and witnesses.
i have about 300 photos, e mail's ,witnesses from co workers and witness from his clients....and even text messages and video(not sure if i can use those or not lol) the emails,witnesses testimonies and pictures are all good documents that will help me.
once i file the papers he has 21 days to either pay me or prepare for his case....i have a friend who is a lawyer in calgary and he is going to help me once hes back in town next week.
the bill is for 3500 and around 3000 for the other worker.
ive done nothing wrong i simply accepted a by the hour job in which i showed up and did work everyday and did great work at that so he has no reason what so ever to not pay me his only excuse is hes re considering opening a business because of the finances it has.....which has nothing to do with me if his company isnt making money then he should pay his employees and lay them off as such not just keep their pay......still a crappy day as it will now be weeks before i even know whats happening.
