Ok, only just got into online banking, logged into my system for the first time Thursday night and found I hadn't been paid for September (I'm on 7 days credit, so more than a week overdue).
Wrote the pimp a stiff "Pay up by midday or I hand back laptop before walking off site with no chance of return, by the by my Solicitor specialises in suing agents" email, and doze off.
Go in and continue working as normal, with one beady eye on the bottom right of my screen. Gets to about 11.40 and I think I'd best sound the bar steward out before marching off, frightened young bob picks up the phone and blubbers, "Oh gosh, but he is in the bank every Friday morning, he cannot see his emails until after 12" - so I think, hairy muff, I know they're only a 3-4 man band max over there, I'll give it another hour and that's it. Good policy as about 12.30 he boss-bob gets in and caves in within 60 seconds of checking his inbox, but get this...
I mean, seriously...the guy out and out admitted, by return email,
"Invoice now paid, apologies for the delay as we were waiting for (bob client too) to confirm some of these internally. TO be honest, we have still not received the payments from past 3 months (July/Aug/Sept) from (client) and we are still chasing them on the same."
W...T....F ??
Even given that he's exaggerating about not being paid himself, did he not just ******** own up using MY money to prop up his business??!!?!??
