Not that I think what the fella did was right but..... I moved cities for my ex husbands career and through an agency was due to start new job on the Wednesday but split with up with ex on the Tuesday.
Despite all the cr*p I was going through, I phoned the agency (pretty much straight away) and told them I wasn't going to be starting, they went mental and I was so furious with them! I'm sure people make up excuses all the time but my excuse was real and a major life changing issue. Once I had my head togeter I e-mailed the co I was meant to work for and apologised for leaving them in the lurch and explaing the situation. I think they appreciated the effort, certainly I got a very nice e-mail back form them.
I've moved jobs a few times since then and would never use that agency again, despite them trying to cosy up to me a few times since.
So DA, whilst I do feel for you, I still hate agents!!!
